What is the cause?

I agree with Teresa. National Health Services needs to figure out where exactly excess and unnecessary amounts of money are being spent. From what I have learned, the U.K has the right idea: access for all no matter what your preexisting conditions may be. This is a very noble ambition for any government to take on and I cannot even begin to imagine how hard it must be to insure that this system works. However, in order to further sustain this universal health care system, the government truly does need to determine where money is being used carelessly.

The article suggests creating lists of doctors that are known to provide good services. I do not quite understand what this would do to address the financial problem?

What is causing such a financial burden? Are there administrative costs that could be eliminated? Processing of paperwork that could be done differently to bring spending down?
