The 'pruning back' of the NHS is never far from being in the News
The NHS will face the biggest shake up and reforms very soon, It is without doubt the best Service in the world, Lord knows, plenty come from overseas to use it, but I am inclined to agree, reforms and changes have to be made for this service to run efficiently ....
Where would you suggest savings could be made?
Could a charge be made to those who simple don't bother to turn up for an appointment? seems to work in the Netherlands..

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.The changes aren't coming, they've been here for the last twelve months - witness the millions which have been saved since this time last year by closing services and making staff redundant all round me. I guess you could call me an NHS suit if you wanted to, but without the services we offer in the support services (HR, training, data protection, IT, estates, etc.) there wouldn't be any hospitals or trained staff in them. In today's paper they are talking about ten hospitals who are bankrupting themselves and which may close or be taken over by other services. The cost of healthcare is massive - we can't go on like this. You can't do without the backroom services - this means that the clinical and medical staff can get on with their jobs.
