As per a new study, it has been revealed that giving power to private companies to run public health services is not in the interest of the NHS.

A group of researchers from the Centre for Economic Performance at the London School of Economics said that private companies will lead to longer stays of patients which will further increase the cost of treatment.

In another study it has been found that involvement of private companies will lead to better improved services and quick check ups with more advanced technologies. "In addition, we find no evidence that publicly funded NHS hospitals located in more competitive areas were cherry-picking patients who would tend to be less expensive to treat”, said the study authors.

The study data found that areas where more private health clinics are present there the NHS seems to lack behind. The data for 2008, 2009 and 2010 have proved the same. However, the NHS experts told that such is not the case as they have been attending all the patients, who come to them. They have never been attending patients in terms of the seriousness of their disease.

Such is not the case, said the study researchers, who further affirmed that the NHS needs an overhaul. They need to have a system which has just one aim and that is to treat patients. It will be better for them to stop choosing patients, said the study researchers.

Private health clinics have also been looking all sort of patients whether rich or not. In addition, some of the reforms in the social care bill are said to be debatable as they are found to be not in the interest of people.
