NHS England: A Call to Action
NHS provides medical services in three separate groups. Which are these groups and what services do they provide?

I am not sure - is it Primary services, Secondary services and In-Patient treatment? If so, then Primary services are those linked directly to GP practices, Secondary services are more specialised and in-patient are residential e.g. in nursing homes and hospitals. If that's not right then I have no idea! Why do you want to know?
I think you probably mean the medical services provided by GPs. These are organised in three general groups which cover essential, additional and enhanced services. Essential treatments are an extensive range but for example include things like asthma or diabetes management. GPs must provide these. Additional services cover another extensive range but examples are things like contraception, maternity, vaccination which GPs may elect to provide. Enhanced services are extra or specialised services which could also cover a wide range but examples are substance use or depression. GP services are part of primary care and their contract refers to "general medical services" which are organised into these three categories of service. The NHS covers a lot more than GP services. NHS England is organised in 5 general groups: most medical services are in the first group which includes primary, medical, pharmacy, dental, optical, and then there are 4 other groups which are specialised, public health, armed services, and justice services
