WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE?

If PBC is to generate “Care Out of Hospital” then appropriate level budgets with minimum Top-Slicing or with-holding MFF, is essential, otherwise where are the incentives?

New providers can and will offer services at below acute care HRG tariffs, but not at the baseline tariff.

To reach financial balance means either rationing care or providing it more cost effectively.
