Middle England's £623million bailout for the NHS

Middle England's £623million bailout for the NHS Britain's hard-pressed middle class is being forced to plunder savings and rack up huge debts to pay a staggering £623 million for vital operations that NHS hospitals are struggling to perform.

Record numbers of patients are shelling out up to £15,000 a time, after being told they must wait many months for treatment despite being in extreme pain, according to a hard-hitting report.

They are cashing in ISAs and pensions, taking out loans, borrowing from families and friends, and 'maxing out' credit cards to fund treatment they should have had sooner on the NHS, say experts. The Daily Mail
