The reconfiguration of local health services is a matter for the local National Health Service. All service changes should be led by clinicians and be in the best interests of patients, not driven from the top down.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
It is for NHS commissioners and providers to work together, with local authorities, patients and the public, in bringing forward proposals that will improve the quality, safety and sustainability of healthcare services.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
Any changes must be supported by the Government\u2019s four tests for service change, namely:<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
- support from general practitioner commissioners;<\/p>
<\/p>
- clarity on the clinical evidence base;<\/p>
<\/p>
- robust patient and public engagement; and<\/p>
<\/p>
- support for patient choice.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
Once a decision on a local case for change has been made, it is up to the NHS to ensure its local services meet the needs of its population.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
More generally, we would expect any local plans for changes to acute services to take full account of the impact on neighbouring hospitals.<\/p>

Grand Central will not pay the same access charges as Intercity East Coast as Open Access Operators do not pay Fixed Track Access Charges (FTAC).

<\/p>
For Control Period 5 (CP5) the Office of Rail Regulation (ORR) has held the Capacity Charge element of VTAC at CP4 levels for services currently run by existing passenger Open Access Operators, however they will pay CP5 rates for any additional or new services whilst any new entrant Open Access Operator will pay CP4 rates on services below a set threshold and CP5 rates on services above that threshold. <\/ins> <\/p>"}
