  • Title: Primary care trusts. Leading lights.
    Author: Thornham R, Nicholson R.
    Journal: Health Serv J; 2002 Jun 07; 112(5808):26-7. PubMed ID: 12087716.
    Abstract:
    Involving clinicians, lay members and managers on the boards of primary care trusts has great potential for producing innovative services. The involvement of clinicians means decisions are more likely to be acceptable to staff on the frontline. It is important that strategic health authorities foster innovation and do not seek to become controlling of PCTs. It is vital that a culture of performance management does not hamper PCTs' development.
