            <description>The management of information in primary care and its relationship with wider health and social care provision to local communities will become increasingly challenging in an age where treatments will be commissioned and provided more quickly using more providers from different sectors (private sector, community sector, voluntary sector etc.), patient expectation increases and choice improves. This can only be done effectively by PCTs and practices when supported by good quality information and the facility to analyse that appropriately. Further, the scrutiny of information will become more intense from health care providers, commissioners and performance managers as well as the media and the general public under the Freedom of Information Act.
