Transforming hospital, minor GP reforms (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

morphing

'transforming' is the definition.
(morph means to change shape or form)

'hospital minor gp reforms' is the wordplay.
'hospital' becomes 'h' (abbreviation for hospital on maps).
'reforms' indicates an anagram.
'h'+'minor'+'gp'='hminorgp'
'hminorgp' with letters rearranged gives 'MORPHING'.
