title: The White Paper and the elderly.
abstract: If government proposals for primary care are fully implemented, there will be a conflict between the requirement to seek out illness in elderly patients and the ability to deliver treatment. Budget holding practices may have particular problems and the government's intention that patients should have greater choice may be jeopardised.
