BRITISH DOCTORS’ INCOMES

B.M.A. ADVOCATING INCREASES (Rec. 8.30 p.m.) LONDON, March 30. The 60,000 doctors of the British Medical Association have decided to press their claim for an additional £16,700,000 for the central pool from which general practitioners in the national health service are paid. The British Medical Association recommended a 70 per cent, betterment factor, to compensate for the changed value of money since 1938, instead of the 34 per cent, factor whicn the Minister of Health (Mr Aneurin Bevan) laid down. The association urged that the extra money should be used to raise the fee for each patient from 18s to 35s for the first 1000 patients on a doctor’s list. This is reckoned to mean an additional £916 a year for each doctor.
