NHS England is considering cutting at least 75 senior staff posts across its operations by March 2015 in a move to streamline its procurement as part of a wider review of its operations and how it manages major healthcare projects.

The non-departmental body, which since 2013 has been responsible for commissioning primary health care services across England, including the proposed care.data patient records sharing project, has been undertaking an organisational review on operational efficiency since Spring.

In an e-mail sent to staff last week to update staff over the organisation's review process, NHS England chief executive Simon Stevens said that potential reductions to levels of senior staff were among possible options to try and overcome funding pressures on delivering frontline health services.
