Lansley: commissioners must value pharmacy

摘要

Pharmacy services, including local enhanced services, should be maintained and developed by NHS organisations, Andrew Lansley, Secretary of State for Health, said this week."I hope that GP commissioners will see the potential for pharmacy to help them deliver maximum value for their patients' care," Mr Lansley said, acknowledging that in the past, GPs have seen money spent on pharmacy as detracting from money spent on their own practices, he said in a pre-recorded speech delivered to the third Sigma Pharmaceuticals conference, held this week in Mauritius.
