It clarifies some of the origins of the "problem" and so I think it helpful to put it here. I still have not been able to find anything about how Circle became the preferred bidder, but it is evident that the decision to seek a partner was followed by significant delay and that proper plans for the hospital were impeded by that and by the fact that the PCT (which accounts for some 90% of Hinchingbrooke's "income") was very late in formally agreeing a service level agreement. By now I imagine staff and the public just want some plan in place: any plan at all.
