Pharma Times report:
The number of GPs quitting their roles on clinical commissioning group boards has taken a sharp upward turn, an investigation by GP Magazine has revealed.
Fifty-one GPs left board positions at 186 CCGs across the country during the six-month period from April to August this year, compared to a total of 68 resignations in the whole 2012/13 financial year.
Surrey and Sussex LMC’s Jerry Luke, who resigned as clinical director of Crawley CCG in May, told the publication that his move was driven by increased bureaucracy, rationing and burgeoning practice workload.
