Following the temporary ‘pause’ of thegovernment's Health and Social Care Bill, whathave the coalition truly learnt and what does itmean for the future of the NHS?

Reforms are essential to avert a £20billionfunding shortfall but the drive for efficiency andincreased productivity during these cutbackshas raised vital concerns over the delivery ofquality care. Despite the pause, concernscontinue to be voiced over how the currentchanges will improve patient care and whethertoo much is being done too soon. With pertinentissues of accountability and competition, thereis an urgent need for education, training andsupport when implementing the continualreforms in the countdown to establishing theconsortia.

This forum provides the perfect opportunity todebate the underlying challenges, forgevaluable partnerships and create essentialstrategies for improving the productivity andefficiency of care delivered in 2012.
