Hi Daksha – sorry you had trouble viewing this. Try visiting http://www.doctors.net.uk directly and watching the film on their website. Hope that’s more successful for you. Tim
I work for the NHS in a cancer psychology service. This is currently funded by a PCT. Referrals into the service come from hospital based staff, (eg: consultants, specialist nurses in cancer services). As the service is small and time limited (two psychologists work 0.5 WTE / week), referrals are ONLY accepted from hospital staff – none from GPs.
My concern is that once GPs control funding, they may cease to fund services, such as the one I work in, as they do not have direct access themselves and cannot refer their patients.
I had great difficulties to access the webcast – Current reforms to the NHS -by the current health secretary Andrew Lansley. Any suggestions?
