AnnotationThe diversity of provision that patients will gain from choice is the key to an effective healthcare system, according to Paul Corrigan, who was a political adviser to former Secretaries of State for Health Alan Milburn and John Reid. Alan Maynard, Professor of Health Economics at the University of York, argues against this proposition, stating that a contestable market in primary care will reduce choice. (RH).
