NHS plc
About the book
Delve into the intricate world of healthcare with NHS plc by Alysson M. Pollock, published in 2006. This insightful book spans 336 pages and offers a critical analysis of the evolution of the National Health Service (NHS) under New Labour's policies. Pollock explores the shift from a comprehensive and universal healthcare system to a 'mixed economy of health care', where hospitals operate under foundation status and are guided by market principles with minimal oversight from an independent regulator.
Through this compelling narrative, the author aims to clarify popular terms such as 'diversity' and 'local ownership', providing readers with a deeper understanding of the current landscape of health systems and services. Ideal for those interested in public health, political science, and healthcare delivery, NHS plc is a must-read for anyone seeking to grasp the complexities of modern healthcare policy.
