What are the opposing views on what the government wants to do about health care funding?

Sagot :

health care findings are overtaking immigration and the economy. spending on the NHS has been increasing at around four per cent each year in real terms; but over the ten years from 2010 to 2020 it will only increase at around one per cent. This leaves a big shortfall in funding. while older people are big users of the NHS, the average future 75-year-old is likely to be healthier than the current 75-year-old and, hence, need less health care. And while demographic changes have driven historic increases in spending, they tend to account for a relatively small share of the growth in NHS spending.

Beyond individual and federal costs, other common arguments against universal healthcare include the potential for general system inefficiency, including lengthy wait-times for patients and a hampering of medical entrepreneurship and innovation [3,12,15,16].
