This is an excellent draft speech by Jeremy Hunt, the UK’s Secretary of State for Health. It’s a MUST READ. Check it out!

via Future of primary care – Speeches – GOV.UK.

In my view, this is a fine speech and is sensitive to the issues. It’s uses the right language and talks about four years of transformation.

As a former transformation specialist, I am a little worried that the proposal has been properly risked assessed and costed. 

Any thoughts?
