Investing in primary care

The Investment in Primary Care scheme provides PCTs with funds to encourage innovation in primary care. £50m per year is available to support local initiatives that further the goals of the NHS Plan, and an extra £50m is available to reward general practices and other primary care centres that achieve locally agreed targets.
