Privatisation is the process of transferring governmental control and ownership of a service or industry to a privately owned business.
@92RPXMQ2yrs2Y
I think people who smoke for example should be paying for their healthcare considering it was their own fault
@92SFFW32yrs2Y
That's rather harsh since if you were mabye strongly influenced by your friends that it was a cool thing, you will take your first puff and you won't be able to stop.
@982HKYS1yr1Y
More but ensuring the companies taking over are in it for the correct reasons. Not profit.
@97Z5LTG1yr1Y
Less privatisation but improve efficiency, service quality and value for money
@97Z493L1yr1Y
NHS requires business savvy managing directors running hospitals and consultants need to work for NHS first, private work must be secondary
@97YDQBY1yr1Y
More, with free healthcare for all citizens
@97Y3P3W1yr1Y
More, but only to reduce waiting times and increase economic growth
@97Y3MTZ1yr1Y
More, to reduce waiting times and help economic growth.
@97XX73X1yr1Y
More, but the government should improve the quality of public hospital and healthcare services.
@97WL6B51yr1Y
More when it reduces costs
@97WK84D1yr1Y
@97TMSCL1yr1Y
I'm pretty neutral about this.
@97TJDK61yr1Y
It is good to have some specialized hospitals private, however for general healthcare it should be done by the NHS
@97SF49P1yr1Y
I don,t understand the difference between the previous question for NHS and this one.Need to understand what constitutes the NHS, hospitals and healthcare systems
@97R7GRNConservative1yr1Y
it should be available to certain people
@97Q4J7T1yr1Y
The government should subsidize hospitals, maybe different rooms at different rates.
@97MM2VW1yr1Y
Those who can afford to pay something towards healthcare should but on a banded income basis.
Less as healthcare is a natural monopoly and as such should be state administrated, however private health care alternatives should be accessible and regulated through the state system. Starving the beast must be avoided and reduced.
@97K667M1yr1Y
Allow local authorities to give up half of NHS shares contractually to listed approved companies but NHS must retain 50% and the local authority/company the rest.
@97JCDTP1yr1Y
More, where it is cost effective.
@97F4TPZ1yr1Y
Whoever is best placed should provide the care with appropriate funding.
@97CPZ9F1yr1Y
Free NHS healthcare, unless it’s something like diabetes 2 where you’ve chosen that lifestyle (not diabetes 1)
@97BBTJ21yr1Y
Nationalise the entire health care industry.
@978LFRH1yr1Y
more, but with government subsidies
@96Q2FHM2yrs2Y
The healthcare system right now is useless unless you are about to die. Needs more money and care about people not numbers. It's a computer system that has lost all humanity
@96FCCCP2yrs2Y
Less, but increase national insurance tax on a banding system based on earnings
@96DDJK32yrs2Y
@95TBYXB2yrs2Y
fully nationalise NHS but allow private health services to be set up, so that the people have option to choose
@95NMYNR2yrs2Y
Decisions on privatisation should be made on merit, based on the best value method to deliver a quality service to service users.
@95NMVQ32yrs2Y
Less there should be no privatisation of the healthcare industry and the government should provide more funding
@95MLY8N2yrs2Y
Pay a % every time but still government everything else the same still
@95LN5V82yrs2Y
Slightly more to tide things over for now
make it free and for everyone
@95JQ37Z2yrs2Y
No change but not entirely satisfied.
@95JCCFGConservative2yrs2Y
Keep NHS hospitals and services public and end free at the point of service while developing a private healthcare system
@94JLRZ72yrs2Y
Less and reduce the use of overpriced agency staff
@94D5H4W2yrs2Y
Privatisation is neither good or bad. Ensuring that services are effective and ensure positive outcomes is more important.
@94CNK6N2yrs2Y
The money needs to be better spent.
@94CMGT3Liberal Democrat2yrs2Y
Flat charge with means tested additional charges
@9498HHT2yrs2Y
Whatever’s required to provide enough healthcare to all so that everyone can survive comfortably with the option of privatisation for less severe optional services and lower wait times for less severe diseases.
@947TWZC2yrs2Y
More in order to make the NHS more efficient and less waiting times
@947TQXR2yrs2Y
More, public funded, private delivery
more, but it should only be for services that are not life saving (e.g. cosmetic surgery)
@947KY3L2yrs2Y
Less, I don't need health care right now because I do my best to stay healthy, BUT I can't afford opticians or dentists. These used to be NHS, so what am I paying for exactly?
I think there should be more education around health and more control of the food industry. I believe the food on the shelves is causing the majority of health problems which are crippling the NHS. I also believe natural remedies should be given more attention rather drugs with a great long list of side effects which need more drugs to counteract them...
@94675522yrs2Y
I don’t think there should be more or less. I think the management within the NHS needs to improve and where money is spent needs to be improved.
@945T5SP2yrs2Y
Less, but restructured to minimise wasteful spending
@944L6FN2yrs2Y
I think free health care is a right to be entitled to.
