Why afford the NHS afford our treatment?

Lots of reasons, mostly down to the unique way the NHS was run under the last Labour government (very badly).

I remember seeing a list on the DM website recently with the Keogh inquiry announcement of 13,000 NHS deaths where Gormless Gordon had increased the NHS budget big style, but blew it all on more management and PR instead of Nurses, Doctors & Equipment.

Apparently blows about 14% of it's budget on management.

There's a load of dodgy PFI deals the NHS is lumbered with thanks to Labour.... means there's service contracts where it costs £300 just to change one poxy lightbulb.

They also aren't very good at buying replacement bits for computer printers... been paying a 328% mark-up on those.

There was a dentists contract set-up by Labour that allowed dentists to cheat the NHS out of £73million a year.

There was an article last September about Millions of pounds worth of equipment being stolen from the NHS that was being sent abroad by foreign gangs to places like Iraq & Afghanistan, and NHS chiefs not appearing to give a toss about it.

There's also the Health tourist problem, annouced last month as costing us over £200million+ a year.... NHS supposed to recoup it, but seemingly don't bother...

Was something recently about Government procurement card spending recently, with it being equivalent to what it would cost to take on 52,000 extra nurses...

TPA have one on the NHS having £435million of redundancy payments due to the Health & Social Care Act. http://www.taxpayersalliance.com/waste/2013/07/nao...

It's called "the postcode lottery" - the product of Labour's grand scheme to hand the money over to the NHS Trusts, most of which have "more chiefs than indians" and numbnuts holding the proverbial purse strings.

The NHS in England alone has a budget of nearly £96 billion this year - which works out at around £1,700 per head of population, most of whom never see the inside of an hospital from one years end to the next - and still it pleads poverty.

I do contract work in hospitals the length and breadth of the UK and believe me, if the general Public knew what goes on behind the scenes they'd be pulling their hair out. It's the old "book and cover" scenario - people generally only see the cover.

If you or someone you love is struggling to get pregnant, then this will be the most important video you will ever watch https://tr.im/8uNwq

Don't smoke. Smoking ages your ovaries and depletes your eggs prematurely. If you smoke, ask your health care provider to help you quit before conception.

Don't drink alcohol. Research suggests that drinking alcohol appears to decrease fertility and can harm a developing baby. Generally, it's best to avoid alcohol if you're hoping to conceive.

Don't take medication without your health care provider's OK. Certain medications — even those available without a prescription — can make it difficult to conceive. Others might not be safe once you're pregnant.

Don't depend on vaginal lubricants. Various over-the-counter vaginal lubricants can decrease fertility. Saliva can have the same effect. If you need a lubricant, consider mineral oil or canola oil — or ask your doctor for other suggestions.

Don't overdo strenuous exercise. Although moderate physical activity can help promote fertility, going overboard might have the opposite effect. Some research suggests that five or more hours a week of vigorous aerobic activity can actually impair the fertility of a woman who isn't overweight.

The trouble is there is no continuity, some NHS trusts in the UK seem to have endless supplies of money while other have none, perhaps its about time that the UK stopped treating people who come to the UK that are not entitled to free treatment, lots of trusts seem very lax when it comes to this..

I totally agree with you it's all wrong. Breast implants, IVF and obesity surgery should not be performed by the NHS. I understand Malala's surgery was paid for by the Pakistani government, but no doubt that was on the cheap.
