Question 1:
Description of organisation
One of the recognised healthcare industry known as the National Health Service
which is a publically-funded healthcare organisation operating in the UK. In 2015–2016, the
National Health Service engaged about 1.6 million employees and had total spending of
£136.7 billion. During 2014, the total number of people employed in the health industry in
the UK was 2,165,043. England had 1,789,586 people, Scotland had 198,368 people, Wales
had 110,292 people, and Northern Ireland had 66,797 people. In 2017, the UK had 691,000
nurse practitioners, decreasing 1,783 from the prior season. Nevertheless, it's the first
instance since 2008 that the proportion of nurses has decreased. It sees one million patients
every 24 hours and employs 1.7 million people, making it the world's sixth-largest employer
as well as the world's largest non-military public organisation (Amos, Au-Yong and Musa,
2021).
Income flow in NHS
In April 2003, the National Insurance Contributions were increased to assist fund the
NHS. Despite the fact that National Insurance Contributions now account for a far greater
portion of NHS funding, earned income still accounts for the vast majority of NHS funding.
Additionally, patient fees only make up a small portion of NHS financing. Among these are
prices for drugs and oral treatment, which were first established in the early 1950s. In
2019/20, patient payments for medications and regular dental pulled in £1.5 billion,
amounting for 1.1 percent of the Department of Health and Social Care's total spending.
Individual NHS organisations, such as NHS trusts, can generate a variety of cash streams by
charging parking fees, selling real estate, and providing services to private patients, among
many other activities. The Spending Review process decides how much money the NHS will
get in a given year. This technique determines how much more revenue the NHS will receive
from user fees, pension payments, and local taxes. If indeed the NHS obtains less money
from National Insurance or patient fees than projected, general taxation funds are used to
ensure the NHS receives the cash it was promised (Farhan and et. al., 2021).
Question 2:
Reviewing skill mix of NHS
Primary care is under the historic burden of ageing of the society with incredibly
challenging health demands and a scarcity of GPs and nursing personnel. Resource reform
