I'm afraid you will have to take the coverage as you find it - it's a very hard subject to be dispassionate about, whatever side of the fence you sit.
The BMA is biased, but that's its job so you can't blame it for that. Working in the NHS, as an employee and a private provider there are pros and cons to each argument. What is abundantly clear is that the health secretary didn't do a very good job about explaining the Bill and the benefits it is intended to bring. It also clear that a lot of the cost saving could be achieved without primary legislation, using the existing structure and skill base. Many areas are finding that the skilled administrators that are needed to deliver value for money in commissioning organisations have taken early retirement or left (commonly for employment in private organisations). -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Dr Michael Benjamin Sent: 21 March 2012 07:41 To: LEEDSLIST Subject: [LU] Utterly non LU ~~ Health reform Hi For obvious reasons this subject is of great interest. I have the bill. Anyone point me to good articles that are pro & con without obvious bias? Last question: Is the BMA biased in its objection or is it worth reading? _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email [email protected] PETE CASS (1962 - 2011) Rest In Peace Mate
