Abstract
The Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) were central to the health reforms. Charged with service redesign, GPs were handed a substantial part of the total NHS budget with a remit to leverage expenditure more effectively and with a view to re-allocate with new service offerings. Current centre-led initiatives such as the Better Care Fund and the new models of care outlined in the Five Year Forward View have been firmly embedded in the CCGs. Are the CCGs living up to expectations?
