    Journal: Health Serv J; 2000 Aug 03; 110(5716):30-1. PubMed ID: 11186793.
    Abstract:
    An evaluation of 14 personal medical services pilot schemes has found the GPs involved welcome the reduction in paperwork. The flexibility in funding of the schemes has allowed GPs greater leeway in managing their workload. Some of the financial risks of running a practice have been removed. It is questionable whether the schemes are fully using the freedoms envisaged. Some schemes reported a lack of support from their health authority.
