The NHS should waste less money-and provide the most bang for it's limited buck
Purchaser provider takes 20% of NHS funds (York University: Admin costs rose
from 5% in mid 1970's to 14% in 2003)
( £4.5 to £10billion)
Lansleys Monster Act raises admin to 30%-AQP, contracts, legals, bidding etc
Doctors retiring early, emigrating-costs
Qualified medics refused training places-costs
Qualified GPs ready to work, unemployed-costs
Shortages of Consultants, Resident (Junior Doctors), Nurses, Midwives,
beds-costs
ICBs rationing-costs
Abolishing NHSE-costs
Alienating Consultants, Resident J Doctors, Nurses, Midwives,
Oncologists-costs
Suggestions
Return to Bevan NHS
abolish Purchaser provider
Abolish PFI, PE-costs seven times the capital cost!!!
Abolish ICBs-merely denying care like US style ACOs
Restore DUTY of Health Secretary to PROVIDE a comprehensive NHS
Can the UK issue money without IMF warnings on borrowing costs, hyperinflation?
Can NHI be lowered, basic rate tax raised, more on the very rich?
Can Residents and GPs be awarded FPR in one go-yes! Only £1.4bn, 800k
after tax repaid-a bargain!!!
