From GP commissioning to children's centres, swaths of government policy could have been tested to ensure its effectiveness. The electorate should now demand that it is. GP commissioning is at the heart of the government's health reform proposals. It will mean GPs taking the lead role in negotiating and buying treatment for their patients. It will cut out a layer of bureaucracy - the primary care trusts - and ensure those with the best information on their patients, and the best incentives to be efficient, are taking charge. It sounds like a good idea. The health secretary certainly thinks so. Search |
