I'm a little confused, i just got a phone call from the Medical Centre that I see my Psychologist at. They seem to be after a backdated referral letter, because of my last appointment with him?
Though I can't understand, they already have a mental health plan from GP, surely that still covers me for a year? And the appointment I just had with him, was the 10th for the year.
Idk? I don't want to deal with this on a Friday.

Hi, welcome
Care plan visits are for a calendar year e.g. they end December 31st. Early next year you'll need to seek a further 5 visits. That's my understanding. I don't also understand their need for a past referral letter.

Might be as simple as calling your GP on Monday to ask for a fresh referral? Anyway, I like your attitude - don't give it a thought this weekend, and enjoy 🙂

Well that in itself is a problem, he has taken a while off over Christmas. I believe he isn't back until some stage in January, i guess i can't really do anything anyway.
