The NHS under the coalition government and after the Election

Abstract

The NHS has become a central issue of the general election. It comprises a fifth of all UK public expenditure: £129.5 billion in 2013-14 and expected to be £131.4 billion in 2015-16. The majority is spent on staff costs. Although the number of doctors has risen since 2010, the number of nurses has hardly risen. There is also growing concern over the level of GP recruitment
