I am actually in favour of a more federal setup but this seems to be being done by stealth. If Manchester get this part of the NHS budget what happens if I, who live in Yorkshire, have an accident while visiting? What if there cancer results are better than ours over the Penines? Will we have centres of excellence that stay national for rare or difficult illnesses?
I am not against it and I do want care and health to be brought together and it seems that this is the intention here but it does seem a bit by the back door and not "national" as in the National Health Service.
