The Reform of the British National Health Service : the Elusive Consumer
The reform of the NHS in 1991 was supposed to represent a balance between public expectations and financial constraints. While continuing to be a universal System financed through taxation, the reformed NHS was designed to encourage competition in order to offer a better standard of care. It is evident that administrative costs are high, that even if the role of those general practitioners who are now fund-holders has been re-evaluated, true competition is still not yet a reality, and that the services offered to patients are frequently being reduced. While profitability, quality and transparency are high on the agenda, the NHS remains a System of health care in which needs are defined by professionals and not by the choices or demands of consumers.
