Salisbury and Wiltshire dispute cost of services

NHS Wiltshire has allowed £85m for the services but the trust that based on the new tariff and current activity levels the amount due is £100m.

The trust and Wiltshire PCTs are also discussing work carried out inappropriately under the Wiltshire clinical priorities programme in this financial year. PCT calculations say this is as high as £5m while the trust says it represents a maximum of £500,000 of which half had been approved under the clnniical exceptions procedure.
