NHS £20bn boost risks being spent to pay off debts, experts warn PM urged to write off £12bn in hospital overspending or extra healthcare will be unaffordable
Theresa May is being urged to write off almost £12bn in overspending by hospitals or risk her £20bn NHS boost being spent on debt repayment rather than improving healthcare.
NHS experts are warning that promised expansions of cancer and mental healthcare will prove impossible because a large amount of the £20bn that the prime minister pledged this year will go to the NHS by 2023-24 will be used servicing historic debts. The Guardian
