first time I have accessed eyetalk so forgive the delay in replying.

To clarify:- local hospital NHS trusts had confused Practice Based Commissioning and funding for referrals. local PCTs have reassured hospital managers etc that the funding is from the PCT and will arrive in exactly the same way as before.

You can be reassured that you can continue to meet your terms of service and GOS regulations.
