That's been my experience too, most over-65's seem to have been contacted by their GP whereas my wife was sent an email to her NHS email address informing that the vaccine was available to staff in her Trust area, and had to contact to book.
People do "slip through the net" though and I've heard of elderly people (even 85+ year olds) having to chase up their GP for an appointment, having heard nothing. Sometimes will be due to outdated contact details held by the GP, sometimes administrative errors. It's inevitable really when something is being done on a scale of millions.
