“Why can’t a paramedic just do training in breast lumps & then see breast patients like a GP?” Thank you for asking this. This question underpins the lack of understanding of medical training & the very foundation of medicine. I’ll explain why this is so unsafe … 🧵 1/n

This is why we can't have nice things. The messaging here is so shit I can't even comprehend it. So 25 patients extra per year over a decade. Shall we get a violin? Who is writing this shit...and why do they hate General Practice?
6.5 million more patients, but 356 fewer FTE GPs than in September 2015. This unsustainable situation puts delivering timely, high-quality care at risk. Sign this petition here to change that. #RebuildGP #TeamGP bma.doctor/rebuild

It was sacrificed to PCTs when tech mattered but wasn't so pivotal, and practices had levers to influence good decisions Now it's abstracted away and ICBs make far off decisions, disemplowering practices who have to deal with the operational consequences. What other business has to deal with silliness like this for their core operating infrastructure.
NEW: Cheshire and Merseyside ICB has ordered all of its 337 GP practices to use a single digital access system and is switching off five rival products to save money - Spending data shows more than £5.4m paid to Blinx since January 2025 - Full contract began in April 2025 while ICB-commissioned evaluation of the pilot was still underway - Evaluation found “concerns about anticompetitiveness” and “distrust in ICB decision-making” hsj.co.uk/technology-and-inn…

Unpaid carers don’t need a badge saying “recognised”. They need: rest respite proper practical help financial support a system that doesn’t run on carers collapsing
