Source of information, Paul?
This reduces the "avaerage" level 2 PCG of 100,000 patients from
UKP300,000 to UKP267000 - UKP33,000 - almost enough for *2* PCG Chairs!
Hmm, where's my abacus... 1 PCG chair .. 15000, 10 PCG Board members
(6GPs, 2nurses, 1social services, 1 lay - HA non-executive comes free)
40,000 .. locum fees, UKP6000 + 9-10x UKP3000 UKP27000 to UKP30000.
Total so far, UKP85000 or thereabouts.. leaving UKP182000 for
*everything* else - Chief Officer (capable of carrying the PCG forward
into Trust status), staff, premeses , communications etc. ;-<
Becoming *very* glad I'm not on a PCG Board!
