More than a third of GPs on the boards of new NHS commissioning groups in England will have a potential conflict of interest, an investigation suggests.
The British Medical Journal analysed 83% of the 211 boards, which will play a key role in from April, and says potential conflicts will be "rife".
A code of conduct says board members must remove themselves from decisions if they could benefit from the outcome.
The NHS Commissioning Board (NHSCB) says it will issue final guidance soon.
