I am afraid to say it is now a business, the money your surgery gets has to be earned etc, also they can have money taken off etc for not achieving the qof etc. sad but true....
and soon Dr's surgeries are going to be accredited....and gonna have patient participation groups, and if they don't get accredited you could be closed down, so we been told what public wants public can have or else......this is gonna be fun i tell you...
soon we will be able to register at any practice in UK..thats gonna be fun when old Mrs smith wants a visit down in cornwall......
nhs is being bled dry...and don't get me started on all the free nhs care that overseas students entitled too...non EU students, uni gets richer while nhs struggles to care for em....
