General (General discussion, talk about anything.)
S and B
The NHS doctors, both hospital doctors and the GP's in private practice, would never work under the American health care system.
It couldn't be made available to American providers, in any trade deal, unless it was in the election manifesto of a party wanting to be in goverment. It wouldn't get the support of the voters supporting any party in such an event.
The odds are that the EU UK trade deal will include health care. Most of the NHS prescription drugs and diagnostic equipment are sourced from within the EU.
The latest statistics from the major London hospitals regarding stabbing victims shows a marked reduction in fatalities arising from newly devloped protocols. Further proof that large specialist hospitals working in conjunction with highly trained paramedics is the future for the more serious aspects of health care. The more that people fight against reconfiguration of the NHS towards that goal then the more that the lesser demanding services will continue to be put to tender.
