On Monday I pointed out the obvious fact that new forms of commissioning will not stop mistakes being made by commissioners. Indeed with 220 brand new organisations taking new responsibilities one might expect there to be a few more.
But as I said in that post I also have no doubt that some CCGs will be developing the necessary radical new approaches to health care. It is not just because CCGs have a number of clinicians in their leadership, but it is also the case that those GP leaders have usually been a part of their locality for decades. They know the area, as well as knowing their patients.
