  9. Kent & Medway HIS Methodology for calculating GP Practice Deprivation Scores: • GP Practice deprivation scores are weighted estimates based on the National Index of Multiple Deprivation Scores for Kent LLSOAs published in 2004.   • The registered population for each Practice is broken down by postcode. • Each postcode is assigned a deprivation score (the score for the LLSOA in which the postcode is located). • The deprivation score for the postcode is multiplied by the no. of persons registered with the practice that live within that postcode. • This calculation is repeated for all postcodes for that practice. • These figures are then summed to give a total for that practice. • This total figure is then divided by the total registered population of the practice to give an overall weighted deprivation score.
