The UK works around this with a tightly knit community programme, something I imagine you don'tget with commercial hospitals. They have obligations to be active within the community set by the government, kind of like the BBC have obligations to satisfy certain audiences. They offer free sex ed and other medical education services for young people and schools, free mother and baby clinics and so on and so forth. It's a good system.

 

None of that addresses the Obesity problem. Which is a huge problem. Some UK doctors have suggested not offering the same services to the obese because of the huge deficit their care causes. They were of course shot down.

 

I think you missed my point.
