NHS should they pay for everything?

June 9th, 2011 posted by admin

People are arguing that the NHS (National Health Service) should be paying for everything. People expect the NHS to fund all types of treatments and procedures and in particular cosmetic surgery. People are arguing that they pay their taxes so they should be entitled to any treatments they want or need. Requests are being made for the NHS to fund procedures at tattoo removal clinics, for breast enlargements, nose jobs and all sorts of other cosmetic surgery. Is this really what the health service is there for? The argument for these treatments is that they are essential for people’s self esteem, well being and mental health. They need the cosmetic surgery to be able to function properly and happily take part in normal social activities and just general life. Without the treatment being free from the NHS they just cannot afford it and so they must carry on their day to day lives feeling miserable and unhappy. Others hold the belief that the money they pay into the system shouldn’t be spent on people who are only trying to beautify themselves, why can’t they be happy with the way they look? Should the NHS be paying for non medical treatments, when people who have life threatening conditions have to wait months to even get an appointment? Allowing these cosmetic treatments to go ahead is only going to cause longer waiting lists and more hassle within the NHS that there already is. Surely the patients who want these cosmetic treatments should pay for them out of their own pockets.
