NHS reorganisation could "threaten patient safety" NHS England says Accountable Care Organisations will target funds and services more effectively.
Proposed changes to the way NHS services are provided in England will be challenged at the High Court in Leeds.
Campaigners are bringing a judicial review of plans to create new regional Accountable Care Organisations (ACOs) to oversee healthcare.
ACOs are part of emerging plans across the country intended to help integrate NHS services, encouraging hospital and ambulance trusts, GPs, local authorities, social care providers and health commissioning groups working more closely together.
NHS England, backed by Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt, says they will help meet soaring demand in the health service, ease pressure on hospitals and provide care in appropriate and cost-efficient settings. Sky News
