Continuity of care versus speed of access

[摘要] General practice is facing a period of uncertainty, with the Government seemingly intent on using its forthcoming White Paper to shake up the core elements of a system that has served the NHS so well over generations. Whatever the outcome of ministers' high-profile ‘listening exercise’, it is already clear that increasing fragmentation of general practice will be an inevitable consequence of the Government's determination to give private providers a central role in primary care and to expand massively the network of NHS walk-in centres and commuter clinics.
