PBC was a useful tool for resolving problems within the NHS and improving services but is not supported properly by PCT’s.

There is far too much waste,inefficiency,red tape,auditting and “counting of paperclips” at PCT’s.

There really needs to be a bonfire of administrators in order to free General Practice and let it thrive; PCT’s meddle in the affairs of GP far too much. It would also be a better way of saving the money (as opposed to cutting front line services) that is going to be required next year.

Many PCT’s need to be abolished/merged and slimmed down. We do not need them!
