So, how should this "sorting out" be done? If you know of a cheap, possibly very rewarding, yet unorthodox method of improving the lives of people afflicted with those conditions, tell us.
Or are you arguing for money to be withdrawn from substance abuse and be put into treatment for those diseases?
I have know idea, but patients in some areas are allowed certain treatments and in the next area (only a mile away) they are not. Is this the same for drug addiction?
I'm not arguing that money should be withdrawn from any thing. It just appears that drug addicts etc seem to get a lot of press etc about funding when other causes don't. Possibly sensationalism by the press?
My use of the phrase sorting out relates to all aspects of NHS funding.
