IntroductionThe Independent Funding Request (IFR) process was introduced by Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) to ensure regulation of Procedures of Limited Clinical Value (PLCV). With regards to ENT procedures, this affects tonsillectomy, adenoidectomy and grommet insertion. The policy is in place in order to increase clinical efficiency and cost-saving within the NHS. The aim of this study was to analyse the impact this process has had on the ENT department at Bucku2019s Healthcare Trust.MethodsA retrospective analysis of IFR applications made by the ENT team in the year of 2016 was performed. Data which was prospectively entered in to a local ENT IFR database and the electronic patient record system was studied.The primary outcome measure the eventual decision made by the IFR team regarding each patientu2019s case. Secondary outcome measures were number of correspondence and time taken for decision. We also analysed the financial impact of the system.Results229 IFR applications across two sites were included. Of all cases, 80% were accepted, 14% rejected, 5% left without final decision being made and 1% no longer required an operation. 52 of the 184 approved, required more correspondence to either supply supportive information to the application or to appeal an initial rejection decision. The IFR panel met their timeline of 15 days to initial response in only 17.5% of cases and the median number of days to final decision was 30 (range 2-322 days). With regards to grommet insertion specifically, only 3 of 103 applications were turned down. ConclusionsThe IFR process has undoubtedly added a huge human resources burden when considering listing patientu2019s for ENT operations. Very few applications are rejected due to disagreement with the interpretation of the ENT surgeon of national guidelines and instead, a lack of supportive evidence of recurrent tonsillitis from GPs to advocate tonsillectomy is the reason for most failed applications.

This is the 4th report from the Health Committee in the 2008-09 session (HCP 194-I, ISBN 9780215530110) and examines the issue of top-up fees in relation to NHS patients wishing to buy additional drugs privately. In June 2008, the Secretary of State appointed Professor Mike Richards, National Clinical Director for Cancer to examine the availability of NHS medicines and to provide guidance on the circumstances where patients should be able to purchase additional drugs not funded by the NHS, see: (http://www.dh.gov.uk/en/Publicationsandstatistics/Publications/PublicationsPolicyAndGuidance/DH_089927?IdcService=GET_FILE&dID=176353&Rendition=Web). As a consequence the Department of Health and NICE set out three decisions to implement the recommendations, including: (i) NHS trusts were told to end immediately the practice of withdrawing NHS treatment from patients who purchased drugs privately; (ii) guidance was provided to NHS trusts where patients continued to purchase private drugs; (iii) supplementary guidance was issued to NICE to make available a greater range of more expensive drugs to a greater number of NHS patients. Although the Health Committee welcomes the above new approaches, it also sees certain consequences, in particular the development of a two-tier health system. The Committee, for example believes it would be wrong for very seriously ill patients to be moved from an NHS ward to a different location so as to administer a privately paid drug. Another potential danger, is that two patients with identical conditions in the same NHS ward receive different treatments because one patient could afford it and the other could not. The Committee believes good continuity of care between the NHS and the private sector is therefore essential in this area. Overall the Committee is not convinced that a two-tier system will not develop, and that the Department of Health needs to monitor the implementation of Professor Richard's recommendations.

Medical Entanglements uses intersectional feminist, queer, and crip theory to move beyond "for or against" approaches to medicine. Drawing on case studies, the book argues that most medical interventions will simultaneously reinforce inequality and alleviate individual suffering. Thus, the book argues that feminists should allow individuals choice in regards to medical intervention, while working to dismantle systems of oppression.

The NHS is more than a good idea. It is beautiful. And it is you. The importance of the NHS – and the public’s affection for it – cannot be overstated, as seen through the COVID-19 pandemic. The author and his family of medics have lived and breathed the NHS, from before 1948, its birth and its history to date. But this book is for people who do not come from this medical background and do not have this life experience. Thus there are three target audiences. Firstly, it can contribute to A level study of the NHS, and career advice for 6th form students who are applying to university for a degree in healthcare. Secondly, it will educate health and social care professionals in training and in their early years. So they can start with the knowledge that the author had when he went to university in 1979. Thirdly, the book is for everyone else, who want to know how it all fits together, and in this way, improve their healthcare, and that of their family.
