From a purely practical point of view, the NHS is going from being run by 150 bodies (PCTs, SHAs etc.) to over 600 - each of which will need to have contracts and SLAs in place every bit of healthcare provided. McKinsey's and their ilk are already well into the GP commissioning groups offering to 'help' with this.
Throw in GPs deciding which services are no longer covered by the NHS whilst setting up private companies to offer those very same services and primary care is going the way of dentistry. It appears there's feck all anyone can do about it.
Best advice I can think of is "don't be ill"
