You may have seen... NHS 'reorganisation' is outlined NHS shake-up 'hands funding powers to GPs radical programme for a radical government NHS revamp to push up standards Biggest reorganisation in the NHS since 1974

Andrew Lansley has a clear vision... Andrew Lansley: 'A shared ambition to improve outcomes' patients must be at the heart of everything we do the NHS must be focused on achieving continuously improving outcomes for patients we must empower clinicians we must prioritise prevention and create a public health service we must reform social care alongside healthcare

This includes some concrete changes Out with the old, in with the new Funding from DH > SHAs > PCTs > GPs and Commissioned Providers Public Health responsibilities held by PCTs FT status for NHS Hospital Trusts optional Occasional financial bailouts Limited independent sector commissioning support of NHS funded services 80% of funding to be held by GPs, who will commission using an Any Willing Provider model Responsibility for Public Health to be held by Local Authorities All hospital trusts must become an FT, or part of one No bailouts for commissioners and providers Commissioning support will become a new market place for the NHS, with considerable outsourcing

The end state will look very different Funding Accountability Parliament DH NHS Commissioning Board GP Commissioning Consortia Monitor (economic regulator) CQC Providers Patients and Public Local Authorities Local HealthWatch Local strategic partnership licensing contract Accountability for results
