OUR PRESTIGIOUS CLIENT

The National Health Service (NHS) in the UK ensures universal healthcare. The NHS is one of the world's greatest, safest, and most inexpensive healthcare systems. Although the NHS employs many British/UK nationals, certified experts from around the world work there.

According to the report, international healthcare professionals have long contributed to the NHS, particularly in crucial departments where there has been a historic scarcity of UK educated personnel. As a result, the NHS has actively encouraged overseas specialists to relocate to the UK for many years.

Aside from the professional competency baseline, these experts are subjected to severe requirements specified by the NMC UK.

The NHS was founded in 1948 on the belief that adequate healthcare should be offered to everybody regardless of wealth.

Except for prescriptions, optical treatments, and dental care, the NHS in England is free to all UK residents. More than 64.6 million people live in the UK, including 54.3 million in England alone.

It sees about a million patients every 36 hours. Antenatal screening, routine screenings, long-term conditions, transplants, emergency treatment, and end-of-life care are all covered.

The NHS was rated the best healthcare system in the world by the Commonwealth Fund in 2014. This included efficiency, effectiveness, safety, coordination and patient-centred treatment.

Scale

The NHS employs more than 1.5 million people, putting it in the top five of the world’s largest workforce. The NHS in England is the biggest part of the system by far, catering to a population of 54.3 million and employing around 1.2 million people. Of those, the clinically qualified staff include 150,273 doctors, 40,584 general practitioners (GPs), 314,966 nurses and health visitors, 18,862 ambulance staff, and 111,127 hospital and community health.

Funding

Funding for the NHS comes directly from taxation. Since the NHS transformation in 2013, the NHS payment system has become underpinned by legislation. The Health & Social Care Act 2012 moves responsibility for pricing from the Department of Health, to a shared responsibility for NHS England and NHS Improvement. When the NHS was launched in 1948, it had a budget of £437 million (roughly £15 billion at today’s value). For 2015/16, the overall NHS budget was around £116.4 billion. NHS England is managing £101.3 billion of this.

NHS PAY SCALE 2021-22

In addition to basic pay, there is also extra pay for staff who works in high-cost areas such as around London.
