If the NHS is instead viewed as a 'wellness service' then perspective changes radically.
Think about the effect on GDP if niggling health issues are addressed promptly before they become big ones that prevent someone working? Think about mental health issues where earlier and more effective support should greatly reduce far more expensive care/support needs when someone reaches crisis point.
Too much is viewed in terms of 'cost' rather than benefit/ enablement to a functioning economy.
