Healthcare

Healthcare Sector Legal Support.

Over the years this is a sector that has experienced a number of significant changes, none more so than those envisaged in the Equity and excellence: Liberating the NHS white paper and the subsequent Health and Social Care Bill. This root and branch restructuring of the way that secondary medical services are to be commissioned through new GP consortia presents a challenge to all of the medical profession and to GPs in particular. More than ever, it is essential for GPs to have an advisor that understands healthcare and the particular issues and opportunities that it currently faces.
