NHS to curb 'outdated' treatments

Quote:
The NHS is to come under pressure to weed out ineffective and obsolete treatments by the drugs watchdog.
The National Institute for health and Clinical Excellence is to encourage doctors to stop using old treatments when newer ones are available.

It was revealed that unnecessary tonsillectomies and hysterectomies are said to cost the NHS £21m a year.

The government, which is backing the initiative, said it was not about rationing care to save money.

Health minister Andy Burnham said NHS trusts would be allowed to keep the money but said it was right to stand back to look at the whole picture.
Lets hope that any money saved is used for patient care and not to give the already over-paid administrators more money

Agree mate, I doubt that the areas that need the money won't see very much of it ... it will probably be spent on the Salary of some fat cat, that is appointed to some new department, that will be needed to be able to run the scheme.
