There's been rumours
The notion that anyone is steering the UK towards the quirky US model is simple fear-mongering.
Even the partisan article you cite only talks about privatisation of elements of the NHS.
A mixed public/private health care model can be effective policy. The Australian system serves as an example of this.
The NHS is an inefficient mess, despite the efforts of so many of its staff. It is reasonable that we should be able to debate policy models. The tone of the Guardian article does not assist reasonable debate.
- DanBC 6y agoWe already have a mixed private / public model. Billions of the NHS budget is spent on NHS patients in private providers. > The NHS is an inefficient mess Mostly caused by the incoherent Lansley reforms and years of austerity from Hunt.
