Verbatim
“Practices are clear that prescribing the right medication with the best patient outcomes does not necessarily mean providing the lowest-cost medication.”
“We were subsequently informed that A&Gs would be converted to outpatient appointments by cardiology when they assessed it as being required rather than asking GP practices to do so.”
“This risks further destabilisation of general practice or disengagement with advice and guidance to preserve our capacity and resources for core general practice work.”
