Stop giving more money to the NHS? Feat. Carole Malone & Kevin Maguire | Jeremy Vine

- Labour health adviser, Paul Corrigan, has warned that it wouldn't be feasible to give the NHS more money if it kept failing to improve productivity.
Last year the Department for Health spent £181.7 billion - the vast majority on day-to-day items like staff salaries and medicines. 99 per cent of this is funded from taxes and national insurance.
Health Secretary Wes Streeting has previously said he would treat the NHS with 'tough love' and has launched an external audit of the health service which he says is 'broken'.
The BBC has analysed some NHS data from the last five years and found that there had been a 23% increase in staff and a 19.1% increase in spending but only a 3% rise in the number of patients starting treatment.

The nhs doesn't need more money, just stop hiring private providers
Rather than paying the managers, pay the doctors!
I haven't used the NHS much, I decided to visit a hospital once after being attacked while walking home some years ago by a person who looked high on drugs. They did an X Ray and said I had a hairline fracture to one of my cheekbones. They sent me to another hospital, they then examined my face and said there wasn't really much they could do and that it would 'likely heal over time'. Now, years later, when I move my face, smile etc, you can see the indentation line very very clearly. But I guess I will keep paying all my taxes with my cracked face.
The bosses getting a very good raise
A long hard look at how much nhs money makes its way into private sector pockets.that would be a start and look if there was a way to reduce that cost.
Because a whole chunk of the money goes to private providers and directly into the pockets of shareholders.
Here comes dithering Carol. Spends more time stuttering than saying anything of worth
@waynewinky, grow up, name calling like a four year old! No wonder nothing gets done in this country, epidemic of name calling, overwhelmingly from the left. Use your time to genuinely hold people to account, that is fine but stop wasting everyone’s time, including your own because all you do is embarrass yourself!
😂
NHS is the back rock of the UK economy should be here with the most functioning NHS staff thriving in UK and PM Keir starmer should tackle it effectively.
Country's the same size 😮
New zealand has 5 million people.
We have added 5 million recently 😮
If the NHS collected monies from people using the NHS who are not untitled to NHS. People living her bringing their family members from abroad for treatment when they become serious I’ll. As a retired nurse I know of people who the NHS managers know of these people but just turn a blind eye. There is also much wastage and abuse of resources in every department of the NHS. Staff who use up the last of there sick at the end of the tax year as if sick leave is an entitlement like holiday leave.
That is in no way the major issue.
You're right about all those matters and when my friend came over from Spain she unfortunately broke her arm and had full treatment here from the NHS and never paid anything, although appreciated good service!
NHS funding is saving the patient safety 🦺 and welfare of the population of UK
My example. Anyone with minor injury like knee strain, has to go to physio, get exercises, go back after 3 weeks, say it’s not improving. Sent for X-ray ( which won’t show ligament damage or muscle issue) back to doctor (nothing wrong on X-ray) but what about my pain and inability to walk. We will send you for MRI. 2 months wait. Finally get MRI and it shows ligament and meniscus injury. So please don’t tell me that the cost of a MRI on day one, to diagnose immediately the problem, outways the pain, time and the staff costs in what is supposed to to be a diagnostic pathway……
Ill be honest, i expected most of the nhs budget to be spent on wages and medicine. I suspect jeremy vine finds that so ridiculous because he think the nhs is ridiculous.
I don't mind my taxes going to the NHS, I get a service from it and don't expect it for free. The alternative is outsourced healthcare 😬
Does anyone remember when everyone got irate about managers so they fired all the managers and everything got shiiter?
no just stop giving it directly to private firms... everything actually through the NHS. you'll see the bills go down
Long term planning is need.
The big problems with the NHS:
1)To many administrators to few clinicians.
2) Inefficient procurement proceedures(overpaying for pharmaceuticals and equipment)
3) Too much wastage, e.g. not being able to return unused medication, or unwanted medication if you happen to leave the pharmacy.
To much spent on locums.
Does covid contracts are listed in NHS spending? Yeah, they are and Track & Trace too. You guys should do a better job at doing your job! Give us facts and not put someone else screw up on the NHS. How much money has been spent on agency workers?
Post Office deals with Track & Trace, not the NHS.
I like NHS who saved me by fully funded my present house in UK Manchester best humanity of Dr Kumar who saved me from homeless person
Very angry at the statements been said. It was the conservatives were in charge
@what about nhs wales? Ran by labour, put country before party!
What a narrow view. Jeremy is an idiot.
