Britain’s National Health Service is rapidly destroying the UK Health Care system; dismantling local programs, stripping hospitals of essential service staff, downsizing hospitals altogether, refusing to upgrade old equipment – all under the guise of tightening the belt, preserving what’s left of diminishing resources.

Meanwhile top executives of the NHS have recently received enormous salary bonuses & increases which stagger even conventional economic forecasting rationale. They are nothing short of a criminal syndicate run wild, bent on fleecing the public while ensuring the standards for health care plummet to never before seen depths. Is it not time for a full scale inquiry? Have we not been fooled enough?

‘Thousands of NHS jobs in England are being cut despite government promises to protect frontline services, a union says. The Royal College of Nursing has identified nearly 10,000 posts – double the number from two months ago. The RCN said this was just the start of what was shaping up to be a “crude” round of cuts which would harm patient care. But managers said some job losses were necessary. While the NHS budget is being protected, the health service has been told to save up to £20bn by 2014 to help it cope with increasing pressures from the ageing population, rising price of drugs and lifestyle changes such as obesity.

Ministers have talked about making the system more efficient by encouraging care to be moved away from hospitals and into the community. But RCN chief executive Peter Carter said the latest findings suggested that the health system was simply falling back on “crude” and “short-sighted” cuts. “Our figures expose the myth that frontline services will be protected. If this trend for cuts continues the NHS will soon be straining at the seams.”‘

National Health Service Executives earn huge salaries despite the necessity for drastic budget cuts –

David Nicholson, the British National Health Service Chief Executive earns between £255,000 & £259,999 (approximately $520,000) annually. Gabriel Scally, NHS regional director of public health earns between £200,000 – £204,999. In total 11 DOP executives earn from £150,000 to £200,000. This despite a 21% cut in health services & the sudden firing of 100 hospital workers.

‘David Cameron (current UK Prime Minister) has met a health care pressure group that advocates full privatisation of the National Health Service – a meeting that could infuriate doctors and nurses. The Conservative leader held an hour of talks with the leader of the group Nurses For Reform (NFR) in his private office in the Commons two weeks ago. His decision to meet the radical group, which calls the NHS a “dystopian, Soviet-style calamity”, will be seen as foolhardy after the painstaking efforts he has made to reassure voters that the NHS is safe in Tory hands.’

UPDATE: Some of the most common operations  including hip replacements and cataract surgery  will be rationed as part of attempts to save billions of pounds, despite government promises that front-line services would be protected. Patients’ groups have described the measures as “astonishingly brutal”. An investigation has uncovered widespread cuts planned across the NHS, many of which have already been agreed by senior health service officials. They include:

* Restrictions on some of the most basic and common operations, including hip and knee replacements, cataract surgery and orthodontic procedures.

* Plans to cut hundreds of thousands of pounds from budgets for the terminally ill, with dying cancer patients to be told to manage their own symptoms if their condition worsens at evenings or weekends.

* The closure of nursing homes for the elderly.

* A reduction in acute hospital beds, including those for the mentally ill, with targets to discourage GPs from sending patients to hospitals and reduce the number of people using accident and emergency departments.

* Tighter rationing of NHS funding for IVF treatment, and for surgery for
obesity.

* Thousands of job losses at NHS hospitals, including 500 staff to go at a trust where cancer patients recently suffered delays in diagnosis and treatment because of staff shortages.

* Cost-cutting programmes in paediatric and maternity services, care of the elderly and services that provide respite breaks to long-term carers.

The Sunday Telegraph found the details of hundreds of cuts buried in obscure appendices to lengthy policy and strategy documents published by trusts. In most cases, local communities appear to be unaware of the plans.

Dr Peter Carter, the head of the Royal College of Nursing, said he was “incredibly worried” about the disclosures. He urged Andrew Lansley, the Health Secretary, to “get a grip” on the reality of what was going on in the NHS.
