BMA hails training funding review as ‘dangerous’

The BMA’s Junior Doctor Committee has called on the Department of Health to halt its review of training funding because the outcome threatens to cut millions of pounds from junior doctor training, reports BMJ Careers.

The review of the Multi Professional Education and Training Levy, which will decide the future of how NHS training funding is distributed, is currently underway. The review deals with the funding of both undergraduate education and postgraduate training for all healthcare workers.
