Patricia Hewitt was Health secretary for Labour 2005 onwards. She's a business woman, she's motivated by money and she's been involved in a few scandals. So of course Labour is no innocent party when it comes to the NHS.

Excellent journalism !! People must be aware and fight against privatization of healthcare. That’s also what they’re trying to do in Canada. Mainstream media always criticizing the Canadian system as something that’s is not working or sustainable. But in reality that just need more family doctors and that can easy be fixed by paying them a betters salary and freeing them from expending too much time doing paperwork. Canadians are very proud of their health system. Tax money should be used to benefit its citizen. Not to finance war.
@JackMellor498 Жыл бұрын
Agree wholeheartedly. The big interests run the media, the big interests of the elite who will always favour a profit based system instead of one that looks after people in society. It’s only natural that they should ridicule a free or public healthcare system. It’s such a blatant disregard for the health and wellbeing of a population. The health of a nation after all, has benefits that go far beyond the initial treatment of a condition or illness. It massively impacts the happiness of its people, and their productivity because they’re healthy and fit. That nation’s net wellbeing if you will, gets better. A healthy population leads to a larger labour force, greater productivity and a much healthier economy. Compare this to a society with a failing healthcare system like the NHS at the hands of government and privateers looking to make a quick buck, or a one with a private healthcare system, people are on average more miserable, stressed, anxious, tired etc, because they’re aware that the costs of affording healthcare are so great it will ruin them. It’s that simple for me. Healthcare is expensive, undoubtedly, but those high costs are justified and totally worth it if you recognise that’s going to go towards making people’s lives better. It’s no utopian or radical, countries around the world have it enshrined in their rights or are committed to it by the knowledge of its benefits. The Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Ireland, France to a good degree, Canada as you mentioned, Germany to a good degree, all of these countries guarantee affordable healthcare to their citizens. Compare that to the United States, where money and the elite talk more than the pleas and efforts of those who know that profiting off of people who die every year is inhumane. They talk of freedom, and yet I would argue that that freedom should include freedom from fear of bankruptcy. Capitalism in its purest form does no good for the majority of people, and a ton of good for those who want to keep all the money.

I would not trade our health care system to any private hospitals. Yes our system can be slow and lagging but trust me I have seen both aisles of the private and social health care system. I lived in US for a while, the monthly health insurance taken off from my wife paycheck was around $200, still if it a major surgery, you have to cover some expenses. One of her coworkers had to pay $2000 from her own pocket even she had insurance. They know how to bleed you dry. My mom's open heart surgery was supposed to be done in Jan of last year, but it was re-scheduled 3 times and finally it happened last Wednesday at Ottawa Heart Institute. But i can see why the system is slow. The funding and staff shortage is the main culprit. I can first hand experience how hard these staffs are working just to keep the system going. one example today i experienced one receptionist working two floors taking calls., and scheduling visits for patient. I waited half an hour just for her to take my call so that she can open the door for me. Then i called the nurse who was taking care of my mom, who was kind enough to come down to open the door. I have huge respect for our health care providers. They are the real heros of our society. I am not even mad that I had to wait 1 year or wait half an hour for someone to open the door. I will wait for 1, or 2 years for surgery but not swap our system for US-style system. If you see the symptoms of colon cancer, you should go to emergency at your nearest hospital. They will have to admit you no matter what. If it is just a general inquiry, it will take time. Also, I live in a city, so blood work, colonoscopy, eye check up, endoscopy do not take 2 years. Have you tried exploring different locations for colonoscopy?

If they want people who have the money to use Private services and release the capacity to people who really need it, they really need to improve on that. Private health insurance also doesn't cover pre-existing health conditions and excludes a lot of illnesses and treatments. There is one place that doesn't have the NHS and that is Guernsey perhaps we should look at that system.

If it weren’t for the cabin and the charity of my church, I’d be homeless. As for dental, senior services supplies none. I’ve literally pulled my own teeth, which is another reason I can’t get work. Nobody hires a person with nasty looking teeth. I understand the lady from Appalachia. People can sue me all they want.

It went horribly wrong and three and half months later I had a full hysterectomy at age 24. I have no idea how to just get to see a GP, If I ring at 8am and sit on hold for 30-50 minutes only to get told there are no appointments left that day and you ask if can I book an appointment they try and give you a date three months away. I have been doing this for about a year. They do care why should I. The last time I called thinking I was having a heart attack and the ambulance at 11ish at night they made it to me at 8 am the next morning. If it was a heart attack I would have been dead by the time they got here. I have given up. I deal with day-to-day pain and just hope for the best at the point when it is really dangers I will collapse and then maybe someone will be there to get me help. People are not getting better they have just stopped asking for help.

Every said here is worthy of thoughtful investigation and change. However, the implication is that the NHS is so much better in comparison but I think a similar documentary could be made highlighting all the horrifying things that happen thru the NHS as compared to private care. Neither is a perfect solution

Now it makes total sense about new labour and Mr. starmer and his alliances with the conceratives . The GPs are already doing these things right under our noses .most only do a couple of days work in the surgeries for NHS patients. They spend the rest of the time elsewhere .

I'm puzzled how anyone can love a health care system that has such poor service and requires patients to wait for months ( sometimes years ) for all treatments except life threatening cases. And the alternative private health care is an outright rip-off. GBP200/= for an half hour consultation? No thanks.

If hospitals became the place where you just house everyone who has a vague medical issue, whose resolution is completely based off of patient satisfaction, it wouldn't be able to take anymore patients after a day as they would immediately fill up every room with homeless people asking for ham sandwiches and dilaudid.

I mean, I’m sure corruption and the rich lining their pockets is part of it. But we’re an aging society. We are discovering new complex diseases and implementing expensive new treatments. We’re living long lives. Health is expensive and our funding has not kept pace. Cutting corners isn’t just about lining the pockets of the rich. But also about stretched budgets from what we as a society have voted we want to pay for health.

When people live to an average age of 80 or 85 and most get diabetes from poor diet and overeating...there's no way these "free" healthcare systems can endure. They would eat up most of the GDP of an entire nation. Especially since people are having fewer and fewer children. Old people need the most care...how can a system work when there are fewer and fewer working people for every retiree needed the most care? How can you send the bill to the workers...when there are essentially no workers? These programs were born in the golden age of the Post WW2 baby boom. A time when everything was set up to go right for the world. And people thought that that was the new "normal". They were incorrect. It was a aberration. Pain, suffering, lack, and uncertainty where health is concerned has been the norm for human civilization since its inception. We are actually RETURNING TO...the real normal.

Older American here. I just couldn't not comment on this video. This video is an agenda driven piece of propaganda skewed to promote the UK's original NHS health care model. Without question the American health care system, like all complex health care systems throughout the world, have issues, but it's nothing like what is portrayed in this video. Don't take my word for it, look at some of the videos made by Brits who have lived or moved to the US from the UK & used the US health care system. The producers of this video showed interviews & selected videos from a small, extremely poor, underserved, impoverished region of the country. I believe that many of the people shown were from a rural coal mining region. As in the UK, coal mining regions & mining practices, especially from 50+ years ago, weren't know for being environmentally friendly or the healthiest places to live or work. I believe the producers of this video intentionally portrayed these & other examples as the rule rather than the exception. I don't believe it is fair to portray the US health care system in such a poor light just because your governmental officials overseeing your NHS got scammed or failed to do their due diligence prior to or when entering into agreements with US based health care management companies. Isn't the UK incapable of putting together their own team of experts to address the core NHS issues? FYI: We typically don't go around dumping patients on to the streets or pressuring nurses to kick people out of their hospital beds, as reported by the UK nurse in the video. Using completely inappropriate, illegal & atypical patient care practices, to push an agenda, to falsely represent the "typical" quality or availability of health care offered in the US, was intentional & knowingly deceitful. Would videos only showing the absolutely poorest & underserved regions of the UK or completely illegal or incompetent UK health care practices provide an audience with an accurate representation of the "typical" level or availability of health care provided by your NHS? I doubt either country does an outstanding job dealing with mental health issues. The producers of this video made a number of misleading & false statements regarding the US health care system & the availability of health care services in the US. There are a wide variety of health care insurance plans & a wide variety of free state & federally funded health care programs & services available. I sincerely hope someone in the US, far more familiar with all the available programs, will add to this discussion. Keep in mind the US is 40+ times the size of the UK & we have a wide range population densities. I think it is reasonable to assume that our issues are likely to be 40 times more obvious & covered far more frequently in the world news. In the US we have a massive number of well regulated, high quality, privately owned / operated medical clinics spread throughout our communities. These clinics are typically owned / operated by physicians or physician assistants. They employ highly trained, qualified & regulated physicians, physician assistants & a wide variety of nurses, medical technicians & administrative staff. Virtually all have on-site X-Ray services & typically offer a wide variety of other services. These typically operate on a walk-in basis & have reasonably short waiting times. There are also a wide variety of independent specialists & therapists available, that don't require referrals from GP physicians, that accept walk-ins or schedule appointments for the next day. Some local medical clinics are owned & operated by nearby hospitals, particularly in under served & low income areas. When necessary, clinics can get you appointments with specialists or scheduled for advanced imaging or testing within a couple of days. We don't experience waiting times like those experienced in the UK. The video didn't say much about how many people in the UK die each year because they couldn't get timely diagnostic procedures or prompt treatment for their conditions? The availability & quality of care offered in US hospitals is second to none. Like the person from the UK in the video, I too developed an acute painful gallbladder issue. I'm at best lower middle class & I don't live in a big US city. I went to the local hospital in the morning the day the symptoms first developed. I received a number of tests that day & underwent gallbladder surgery the next day. The surgery was performed by an experienced surgeon & surgical team, in an average American hospital. A few years ago I also developed a painful foot condition that made walking progressively more difficult & painful. I called a nearby foot specialist, I was seen one the day later & began treatments that day. I've had a history of dental issues over the years. I can get an appointment with a wide variety of dental providers within just a few days, the same day, if needed to treat a dental emergency. My wife had progressively worsening vision problems. She saw her eye doctor at a specialized vision center who determined she finally reached the point where she needed to have cataract surgery performed on both eyes. She had been putting this off for years, because she was afraid to have eye surgery. The first surgery, that required a special lens, was performed within about 10 days. The surgery on the other eye was performed about 3-4 weeks later. We were in & out of the outpatient eye surgical facility in under 4 hours for each surgery. Our health care system, like all health care systems, has some issues, but, in my opinion, the availability & quality of health care available here in the US is second to none & NOTHING LIKE what is portrayed in this video. All too often I hear people from the UK rant about how the health care provided in the US is so expensive, unavailable to most & or not as good as that provided by the UK's NHS. I also continually hear how health care providers in the UK are under paid, overworked, understaffed & ill equipped. Now it seems that the UK is just discovering that they have, & have had for some time now, a large number of health care practitioners who have questionable credentials or substandard skills working the UK health care system. These aren't insignificant issues. Health care providers in the US are typically paid far better than those in the UK. Health care providers & facilities in the US are required to meet & maintain very strict standards. The US has, per 1 million people, 4 to 5 times the number of CT & MRI scanners as compared to the UK. The US also has more hospital beds, per person, than the UK. Good health care providers & health care facilities, with modern working equipment, comes with a price tag. I'm sorry but I don't understand how can the UK expect to build & sustain first class medical facilities, attract & retain home grown highly trained & dedicated health care providers when the system is chronically mismanaged, when you won't - or can't, provide your health care workers with an appropriate level of compensation for their level of education, level of expertise or job responsibilities? The people in the UK seem to want / expect free health care for everyone, like in the good old days, but they don't have the will or means to pay for it. I get the impression that the average person in the UK doesn't seem to recognize that the UK doesn't have an economy that can afford it or a population that is willing, perhaps even capable, to do what it takes to staff or manage it properly? Our system may not work for the UK but it seems that the current UK system clearly doesn't work for the UK either. Based on what was presented in this & other videos on the NHS it appears that your government officials have made some poor management & program adoption decisions. They seem to have failed to properly manage, evaluate, regulate & monitor those providing health care in the UK & the health care systems / programs they have tried to implemented. In the US we don't seriously believe that government run programs will be managed properly, will be cost effective, efficient, or sustainable. Maybe it's different in the UK, but from what I've seen on videos coming from the UK, I doubt it. It isn't 1950 anymore. The make-up of your population, your economy & your economic prospects aren't, & probably never will be, the same or able to sustain your 1950's NHS. Regrettably, the best either country can do is to do as much as we can for as many as we can. I think it 's just unrealistic to believe that any country can adequately address everyone's health care issues.
