GETTING TO KNOW THE NHS – 29TH MARCH
29.03.2011 @ 3:00 am
Understanding the impact of the newly published NHS Bill on the NHS and your business
Since the publication of the White Paper, Equity and excellence: Liberating the NHS, in July last year the healthcare community have been waiting with bated breath to find out how the landscape will alter under the Coalition Government.
Now, with the Health and Social Care Bill 2011 passing its second parliamentary stage, the future structure of the NHS is starting to become clearer. More GPs are establishing pathfinder consortia, the shadow NHS Commissioning Board is being set up and people are on the move.
So if you need to know what will stay and what will go, where responsibilities will fall, who will hold the budget and more importantly how these changes to NHS structure and policy will affect your business, then you need to join us at Austin Court, Birmingham on 29th March for this informative and topical one-day event.
Chaired by the industry renowned Roy Lilley, Independent Health Policy Analyst
