This does not make us 'higher taxed' except in the most literal sense - and ignores the fact that overall costs are often lower in tax based systems because of lower admin costs caused by not having to invoice every individual treatment. https://t.co/LSGFu8txuh — PolitiTweet.org

But in the US you pay much more than 8% of income in health insurance. In the future we’re all going to pay more for health due to living longer & new treatments. In the US/Germany/Switzerland/Holland that’s through higher insurance premiums; in systems like ours it’s through tax — PolitiTweet.org

So a Health & Care Premium is the most honest solution, with a sensible debate on whether we’ll fund the new dementia drugs on the way, make our cancer survival rates as good as Denmark/Australia - & proper social care - & how much that’s about funding v.s innnovation/efficiency. — PolitiTweet.org
