Thank you for your request.
The data for some primary care activities such as expenditure by GPs and Opticians is modelled for inclusion in the National Accounts.
However, unfortunately we do not hold the breakdown requested.
The source we use to model the total is the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) annual report. The data from 2019 will not be available until the 2019/20 annual report is published later this year.
Please see the following link to the DHSC Annual Report 2018-19, which you may find useful. DHSC may be better place to assist with your request. They can be contacted through their online contact form on their wepage: https://contactus.dhsc.gov.uk/
