Government at Work - National Health Care in the U.K.
So, how DOES government run health care REALLY work?...
Jon Swaine and Holly Watt recently reported this in the U.K. Telegraph:
"The sick would be urged to stay at home and email doctors rather than visit surgeries, while procedures such as hip replacements could be scrapped.
The plans have emerged as health chiefs draw up emergency budgets that cast doubt on pledges by Gordon Brown to protect 'front line services' in the NHS.
Documents show that health chiefs are considering plans to begin sacking workers, cutting treatments and shutting wards across the country."
