Do you really think that hospitals and what hospitals do are
not necessary? Do you really think that a good health care system is just about
Primary Care doctors or in the new world order of things nurses doing what doctors
do? (Noctors as our lovely Dr Crippen called them). Do you really think that
Mao was right to train farmers to do Appendix operations in the period of Bare
Foot Doctors?
The pretending is over now that it is clear about the
current governments plan for dismantling he NHS.
The children of my friends and contemporaries are in good
jobs like, lawyers, bankers and dare I say, management consultancies. They are
all scrambling to make sure that their Health Insurance will cover IVFs,
antenatal care and full obstetric care and for those engaged in sporting
activities, knee work and perhaps hip work for later.
For this the Elite of our society, it is not just about GP
care. They are there to refer them to the best specialist in the best Private
Hospital or sometimes at the private section of a top NHS hospital.
Do we still have those: yes we do! See
here>>>>
In London alone these are specialist hospitals that are
famous the world over:
The Maudsley Hospital
Then there is Papworth.
Need I say more!!!
I know that when you visit them nowadays, these places seem
to be full of: non locals. Or could it be that these are now the new locals, I
doubt as you can sometimes see the lovely foreign plated cars parked outside
them. If I am wrong, I do apologise.
The truth is that medical tourists come not for the GP services
we provide, they come for the cutting edge medical procedures and in England,
it is also about value for money.
So, opening up many of these rather precious hospitals for
up to 49% private will mean a severe reduction in actual medical times
available to NHS patients.
That is why: the pretending is over. No, at the end of the
day it will not be the medical care you can get from your GP or Noctors, it
will be well trained specialists with up to date complex procedures that you or one of your relatives may need!
Zebra in fact belong to the same family as the horse (Genus Equus) but unlike the horse has never been domesticated. It is believed that the stripes in a herd is protective as many animals merge together and thus appeared larger.
