NHS

It grieves me to hear our government try to lay all the blame for the NHS ills at the door of the last government, well they should wake up, it is their policy for the new NHS, that's a laugh for a start, they proposed to save money by doing away with the Primary Care Trust's, and bringing in a GP led commissioning group, so just what did happen, the Primary Care Trust goes and its managers some who got a redundancy pay out left but not for long they were re employed on some occasions at the same desk that they sat in before, now on a new salary but under a different flag, so where are all these savings to come from when the same people are now doing the same jobs in the same offices the only thing to change is in fact the name, so there is no real change, the big difference for me is the financial squeeze that is being exerted on the Hospitals country wide, everyone has to remember that medical services today cost the earth they do not come cheap, but we merrily swan along expecting the best service in the world at the cheapest price possible, to save money and invest more in patient care I would get rid of the clinical commissioning groups country wide, get rid of every other tier of health management and have a sole commissioning service for the whole of England, it seems silly to me that each CCG in each area it covers is commissioning the same service for every patient,  I would clear out much more, all we need is one agency not a big conglomerate to sort out the services we need, we could then afford them but while we have a top heavy management it will slowly sink in to oblivion.
