• UK Health Insurance Information

---

Its is David Lloyd George who introduced in 1911 the National Insurance Act in which a reasonable amount was taken off an employees salary and in return they were granted to the right to benefit from free healthcare. This system however was only for the people who were employed. 

United Kingdom National Health System was created in 1946 as a result of the welfare state reform policy.
Before this date the healthcare was for the rich only and unless you were able to get free treatment through either teaching Hospitals or  charity there was very little option available.


A large number of doctors were at first opposed to the idea of the NHS providing free public health care.
The minister of health Aneurin Bevan succeeded in convincing Healthcare profession of the benefits the National Health System was going to have upon the National Health care system currently in force.

The original idea was to provide a fair Health system to everyone no matter what income or background people may have.

By 1974 there was some concern raised by the fact that the separation of the 3 primary area of Healthcare was causing issues. Therefore, a deep reorganization was decided in order to support all 3 under their respective local authority. During Margaret Thatcher governement the management system was restructured and later in 1990 the National Health Service & Community Care Act was adopted to build independent Trusts to further manage Health care.

In recent years the system prove to lack quality care in comparison to the private Healthg care sector.
In some places in UK it is becoming more and more difficult to find dentist with free space in their agenda.
This situation leads parents to seek such treatment in the private sector.

For such reason Private HealthCare has continued providing services aside the NHS.
