Current revision

National Health Service Trusts (NHS Trusts) provide many services of the United Kingdom National Health Service in England and Wales. They are not trusts in the legal sense but are corporations that have been called "Trusts" because of percieved public relations benefits of this term. There are 4 major types of Trusts: Primary Care Trusts, Hospital Trusts, (known as Acute Trusts), Ambulance Trusts [1] and Mental Health Trusts [2].

Radical reorganisation of Primary Care Trusts (PCTs) is currently proposed, which will result in a number of amalgamations by the end of 2006.

Primary Care Trusts

Image:JerichoHealthCentre20050326 CopyrightKaihsuTai.jpg Primary Care Trusts (PCT) are free-standing statutory bodies responsible for delivering better health care and health improvements to their local area. They started as committees or Primary Care Groups of the Health Authority.

PCT have their own budgets and set their own priorities. They directly provide a range of community health services (such as general practitioner (GP), community and primary care services); they may commission hospital services from other NHS trusts (such as hospital trusts). They are governed by a Board (with members from within and outside the Trust), a Professional Executive Committee (PEC) elected from local GPs, community nurses, pharmacists, dentists etc., and managed by a team of Executive Directors. Much of their agenda is determined by directives from the Strategic Health Authority (SHA) or the Department of Health.

In 2005 the Government announced that the number of Strategic Health Authorities and Primary Care Trusts would be reduced.
