Commissioning--a postal questionnaire survey of the opinions of GPs and public health physicians in Wales.
A survey of general practitioners (GPs) and public health physicians (PHPs) in Wales was carried out to establish opinions on a range of matters concerning health care commissioning. Eighty-eight GPs and 46 PHPs were posted questionnaires, with responses received from 56 GPs and 40 PHPs. The results showed good support for the separation of the purchasing and providing roles of health management but little for the internal market or fundholding.
