Perhaps that should read, your own unqualified opinion? Tomeea asked for an explanation of the structure of the NHS and received a manifesto for UKIP instead. This is from the Telegraph; 104 NHS trusts in England will have to pay private companies £1.96 billion by the end of the financial year for PFI deals – enough to pay for treatment of cystic fibrosis patients for 20 years.
The PFI deals financed £11.8 billion in building hospitals in England but will cost £79 billion to pay back over 31 years – equivalent to almost £4,000 per household in Britain.
The 20 most expensive PFI deals will cost the NHS £970 million in debt repayment fees this year.
Four private firms will be paid £39 billion over the course of the PFI deals, and almost £1 billion this year. On top of this, the Health & Social Care Act 2012 puts boards of GPs in charge of strategic decisions of the Primary Care Trusts. None of these boards have yet been formed and until they are, the NHS (England & Wales) spends an additional £5.5bn a year on temporary staff wages (because no-one can sign a full time contract without having a hospital to work at) It also suits those ministers (and wives) with shares in Private Healthcare Provision,(poised to swoop in when the NHS collapses) not to press for the formation of these GP boards. Nothing to do with health tourism at all. Also, it should be noted that the 57p per day it costs the UK population to belong to the EU was apparently "outrageous", but the 47p per day cost to each citizen to supply cancer drugs on the NHS to extend life by only 3 months is completely acceptable to the same news media.
