The Arbuthnott Formula covers funding for Hospital and Community Health services, and GP Prescribing. This amounts to around 70% of the total healthcare budget in 2005/06. Other formulae are used to distribute other areas of funding such as General Medical Services and capital allocations. See Improving the Arbuthnott Formula, prepared for consultation, for more on how NHS budgets are distributed.
