Despite the government insisting nothing's been decided yet - the Isle of Man Medical Society has warned the changes could 'destroy' the health service - and cause staff to leave 'in droves'.
Alan Blythe from Blythe Financial in Douglas says compared to the private sector, health workers still have very good pension prospects (audio file attached):
