Burnham: Doctors will roll their eyes

Shadow health secretary Andy Burnham comments on proposals to include patient surveys in the NHS' 'outcomes framework':

"Doctors and nurses will roll their eyes in sheer disbelief at this news.

"The government that promised to scrap NHS targets now loads 60 new targets on an NHS already under severe pressure.

"It will add red tape and bureaucracy just as the NHS is struggling to cope with the financial challenge and the biggest reorganisation in its history."
