Landmark High Court ruling opens up future Corby walk-in centre to public A CCG’s attempts to turn a local walk-in centre into an appointment-only provider has been overturned following a landmark decision by the High Court.
Legal action was brought forward last month from campaigners against Corby CCG after it outlined plans to change the service from a walk-in unit to become appointment-only, with the commissioning group claiming the decision should not go to a public review.
The decision from Corby CCG was made after Corby Urgent Care Centre’s operator, private firm Lakeside Plus Ltd, could no longer afford to operate services due to insufficient funding from the commissioning group.
Following the judge’s decision to take the case to a Judicial Review, the High Court ruled that there must be a full public consultation to the changes to Corby’s centre. National Health Executive
