UK Collaboration of the Fortnight National Health Service (England)/Archive 1 was the UK Collaboration of the Fortnight for the fortnight starting on November 29, 2004.

I think this should be reverted to the page on the British National Health Service, and make that page a redirect to here. So many pages link to this on the assumption that it's the British NHS. Also, the first paragraph of the current page is very hard to parse.

Also also, is there a term that means something like "national health service" that we could use as the name for the page that's currently here.

National Health Services are in another countries than UK.On the other hand, it´s interesting remark that only the resident people in the country or territory automatically belongs to the NHS:
  • National citizens can reside in another country and are not covered by the NHS.
  • Foreign citizens can reside in the country and have right to the health protection.

This is the universal coverage.

The difference with the social security system ít´s every resident has right, nevertheless s/he is not a worker paying or not to the Social Security (NHS recieves the money from general taxation, like VAT and so on).


The British NHS should be moved to this page. Other countries do not use the capitalised term 'National Health Service'. A quick google search using the term for sites with .ie, .es and .se domains were all referring to the British NHS. Mintguy 18:11, 12 Sep 2003 (UTC)

I would second that, the term National Health Service is a particularly British term, and is not used in any other country but Britain G-Man 18:15, 12 Sep 2003 (UTC)

I thought it was also used in Jamaica(?) Dainamo 11:53, 28 Nov 2004 (UTC)

I've moved the content. I placed the old content of this page on Talk:Publicly funded medicine as that article (and Socialized medicine) has some overlap Mintguy 19:14, 27 Dec 2003 (UTC)
