This is likely to be the most important local judgment to be made when setting actual practice budgets.
For example, the practice budgets are in most instances "notional" (where the primary care trusts largely bear the financial risk of overspending) and not "hard" (where the practices would bear most of the financial risk).
The training was almost entirely technical, which was appreciated by healthcare analysts who confidently applied their new knowledge in novel ways, for example, using the software tool to allocate general practice budgets.
To reduce this risk, practice budgets for commissioning have been effectively pooled for all general practices within the geographical boundary of the primary care trust level (covering approximately 300 000 population), so the trust would each year underwrite financial losses and gains for practices against their notional budgets.
Some practices will have a considerable gap between their needs based target allocation and their current expenditure, and primary care trusts (clinical commissioning groups in future) will need to decide on how rapidly practice budgets should move to the target allocation from historical expenditure.
The funny thing about Brady's fiscal conservatism is that he -- when he had the chance -- failed to practice budget-balancing himself.
This finding at present can only be a rough guide to fluctuations in a real practice budget.
