G.P's views of PCT's.

Here are the results of a survey amongst G.P.'s as to how they rate their PCT.

Given the overall poor rating from GPs the PCTs are disablers rather than enablers and clearly primarily bean counters as most of us have always suspected! :roll:

If you follow the links you will find some comments, I noted this one from Oxfordshire:

We get a PCT that is doing its job, but the job it has to deliver is one that is unconstructive and therefore although it is doing its job well, it is not helpful. The PCT like all PCTs I assume is a perfect example of Parkinson's Law. We have for example one 'manager' whose job has been for the last five years to reconfigure the diabetic service. I sense a couple of GPs could sort it in a matter of weeks, yet he is still employed

I saw that too phoenix.
Perhaps some posters may now realize the big part that PCT's play in the management of diabetes.
