Over 2.2 million unnecessary A&E visits in England in 2024/25 highlight strained emergency care due to poor primary care access.
Millions in England are visiting A&E departments for minor health issues like headaches, coughs, and sore throats, with attendance for some conditions rising significantly since the pandemic.
In 2024/25, over 2.2 million A&E visits showed no abnormalities, and more than half a million patients left without a diagnosis.
Health officials warn that many of these visits are unnecessary, driven by limited access to timely primary care, complex system navigation, and insufficient community services.
NHS leaders stress the need for expanded local care, better access to GPs and pharmacies, and improved guidance to reduce pressure on emergency departments.
