Department of Health: More improved healthcare facilites
28 August 2008
Patients and NHS staff throughout England will benefit from the extension of a highly successful partnership between Primary Care Trusts, local authorities and the private sector to finance and build better local healthcare premises and facilities.
A new national framework procurement, Express LIFT, was launched by the Department of Health today to extend access to the LIFT (Local Improvement Finance Trust) scheme, to all Primary Care Trusts who want to make use of it. Currently, about half of Primary Care Trusts in England benefit from LIFT, using it to build and finance new, modern GP surgeries, health centres and walk-in centres.
