I would like to ask about the level of interest among GPs. Some GPs throughout the country seem to be reluctant to get involved in PCCs. What kind of grant aid is there for a GP who wishes to set up in such a centre? I assume assistance is provided as part of the effort to get full primary care services in place. Is a certain percentage of the cost provided as grant aid to get people interested? What way does it work? What efforts are made to get business people involved in PPPs?
