In today's new I was interested to read that Cameron has declared a series of changes to the planned NHS reforms. The 18 week, and 4 hour waits are to stay. Commissioning will be managed by hospital doctors as well as GPs. Budgets will continue to increase (in real terms). Part of the new announcement are 5 "key points" which will supposedly make us all happy and are based on the complaints of medical staff and other organisations:
Where does the BMA stand on these changes? How much of the changes are due to pressure from the BMA and Nursing Unions? Are these changes simply a sugar coated version of the initial reforms or do they mean real changes for doctors on the wards? |
