Review of Sicko

Sicko (2007)
6/10
NHS not as good as made out
31 October 2007
I watched the scenes filmed at Hammersmith Hospital with great interest.What the film does not mention is that there is a big private healthcare industry in the UK to avoid having to use the NHS.This means that you can get treatment and consultations immediately instead of having to wait weeks or months as you could do on the NHS.There have also been problems with the cleanliness of hospitals with infections by MRSA rife.However with our companies such as BUPA you just need to get the OK from your doctor and phone up the company for confirmation that you are covered for the treatment.it is a system that works well,However with all its problems i would much prefer our NHS to the horror story to what is happening in America.
