Podcast – Practice Index – New Labour announcements

In this month’s Practice Index sponsored panel episode, Ben is joined by panel regular Robyn Clark & also Hussain Gandhi. They discuss the new announcement made by the labour party in regard to General Practice and making the service salaried to the NHS. Robyn and Gandhi express their thoughts with reference to the announcement and the impact it may have on the public, GPs and GP Surgeries.
