1&4 MAJORITY REPORT we would emphasise the need for the desirability of fixing the figure over a reasonable period of years, so as to give to all parties a settled financial basis for their relations. We cannot think that periodical disputes over remuneration are good, either for the Profession or for the professional work. Further, new entrants to the Profession, and persons contemplating the long course of studies now required, ought to be in a position to assess the rewards of the Profession for a period of years ahead. We cannot but think that if some such stability were assured, the advantages would be very great. And as prices now seem to have reached a fairly stable level, there is clearly the opportunity for some settlement, valid over a period of years. 429. If the question of the capitation fee is to be re-opened, it appears to us that there are two distinct principles which may be considered. The Ministry may proceed on past history and adjust the fee according to the cost of living and the rates in force in the contract practices of pre-insurance days. We need only refer in passing to the difficulties attendant upon this method—the limited scope of contract practice, its peculiar nature, the equipoise of the large volume of private practice, which has now in considerable measure disappeared, and so on. The other method—and it is one on which the British Medical Association has laid stress in its evidence hefore us—is to assess the present market value of the services under the contract, as measured by the rewards secured for similar services in private practice, and the inducements necessary to secure a sufficient flow 5f properly qualified entrants into insurance practice. We feel that it is a little difficult to apply this criterion, as private practice among the wage-earning population has been so drastic- ally curtailed by the Insurance Scheme. Still the dependants remain, and probably there are sufficient data available in this way to give a measure of market value. 430. As we have indicated, we do not feel that it is for us to recommend a definite figure. We have had little evidence on the point, and, indeed, one of the two parties principally con- cerned, namely, the British Medical Association, deliberately refrained from submitting arguments, on the ground that the problem must be dealt with later by the Department when our general recommendations had been received and considered. (App. XL/VII, 58-59.) ALTERNATIVES TO THE CAPITATION METHOD. 431. We may direct attention, however, to the method of calculating the remuneration for the general practitioner service. We come unhesitatingly to the conclusion that the capitation basis should remain. We have heard arguments in favour of the attendance system, the case value system, and even the full- time salaried system. But the overwhelming weight of evidence,
