Jonathan Wells was actually mistaken.
We've actually negotiated a very good deal where, based on a 2 year spend on parts - it's not an exclusive deal - we have to spend a certain amount over 2 years (consistent with current spend), and we've received 100 free pulse oximeters.
AND The prices we negotiated were very slightly lower than the discounted prices we were currently paying.
It was, of course, agreed with Purchasing who tied up the contract on behalf of the trust.
We'll spend less and have the pulse oximeters!
No Spare Parts Rip Off here!
