We have a national health system in America but it’s only for the truly poor Americans..
The average person has to pay between $25-50 dollars every time we go to a doctor... we pay $100 if we take a ambulance, and $50-$100 dollars if we go to the emergency room...
We do have free clinics in America... but it’s only for the poor... if you have insurance, you’re not allowed to use these places....
So with swingers in UK going to the health clinic every 3 months for sti screening, plus the cost of a computer system to text results of test results....
Do feel this is waste of tax payers money?
I’ve read on these forums everyone goes to the doctors every 3 months.... with 30,000 members on Fab alone... this is potentially costing the government billions of dollars....
Plus add in the cost non sexual visits to the doctors.....
Swingers could potentially bring the NHS down.... |

There isn't 30,000 swingers on fab. There's 2000. And 28000 dreamers and perverts. |

Actually, if you think about it, regular screening probably saves the NHS money in the longer term.
Imagine if screening wasn't available on the NHS and so fewer people went for check ups.
There could be a lot of people out there spreading infections without knowing anythjng about it - and treating these things probably costs the NHS more |

"No, there would be less single mothers if they were swingers. Imagine the paternity tests. 
Not everyone likes bareback gang bangs..."
I actually meant that swingers generally practice safe sex. If they did get pregnant by accident it would probably be pretty awkward.
Some white guy mug would be sitting by the bed and see your lovechild pop out. |

What Americans pay and what it costs state funded services to provide a similar service are often vastly different things.
I doubt sexual health screening is a significant portion of the NHS budget. |

Considering most guys are only "fab single", and single women are only looking for a self esteem boost, they're never likely to want to get tested anyway! |

If they didn't want us to have this service it wouldn't be available for free, although it seems like the NHS is a free service we pay through our national security charges, and the amount of money the NHS get from pay meters in the car parks of hospitals |

"The NHS is free at the point of delivery. We pay via our national insurance payments."
Partly correct. People think that 100% of NI goes to the NHS.. It doesn't. Some does but some is used as general taxation. However as most people find taxation for the NHS more palatable than taxation for other things it's a common myth that no government will rush to correct you on as it suits them for everyone to think it goes totally to the NHS. Just thought I'd share that with you. X |

It is rumoured that sexual health clinics are to be scaled back in order to save money and then this will / should produce a lot of worried people... If people were a lot more responsible for their actions then the crisis wouldn't exist and we would all sleep well at night... |

Well what’s going to happen to all the swingers who get tested 4 times per year?
I know only a small percentage of swingers bareback but it’s good know you have a free service if a condom breaks..... |

Im not sure about being scaled back but in our area they have been handed over to a separate entity to run them, like a quango if you like, they are no longer run buy the NHS but i think they still fund them if you get my drift, like they have handed over the responsibility to someone else |

1. Regular testing saves money because it’s a preventative measure.
2. The computer system isn’t used solely for STI’s, it’ll be the same notification system that’s used across the whole NHS
3. America is fucked |

If im honest its a much more relaxed and friendly atmosphere, it used to be situated in the local hospital but now its a separate clinic away from the hospital, its so well run without that hospital clinacal feeling. So much so that its actually a pleasurable experience and have no issues with going there
Definitely gets my thumbs up, i think all thats missing is a cuppa oon arrival

It is way more complicated than the cost of regular health screening for swingers |

"You would think that being tested every 3months would be cheaper for the nhs than forking out for the cost of treatment for people who might end up getting infections, hiv, or pregnancy xx"
Ok this might sound crazy so bare with me.....
If swingers are not having unprotected sex , why go to the clinic every 3 months?
You could get tested once or twice a year , and save the government money......

Nhs owns the labs so its not exactly an on going cost beyond staffing and supplies unlike the us whete its a billed thing.
Interestingly though the us government spends more per capita on health care than the uk does.

Diabetics who dont follow thier treatment plan.
Treating the avoidable complications of diabeties (amputations blindness etc) is the single biggest cost to the nhs taking up over 10% of rhe budget alone.

Yes what i mean is you guys spend more per person through tax than the uk does and you then have to pay insurnace on top.
It's a bizzare situation possibly caused by hospitals over testing to charge insurance/the government more.
You cpuld all stop paying insurnace and pay kess tax and have an nhs style system weirdly |

If a system, that is supposed to be free at point of use from cradle to grave, cannot deal with somewhat normal human behaviour (casual sex not being limited to swingers) being mitigated by preventative measures (safe sex and testing)... Then the system is not and will never be fit for purpose.
The attitude to many of these public health things is harm reduction, not stigmatising and bans, as data show the latter backfires (see also abstinence only education).
Why the cutbacks? We have a government determined to punish people for being poor who would dearly love to scrap the NHS entirely. |

"There's one country in the world which doesn't believe in universal health care......

Why would they give that up?"
Morals? For the greater good? To ensure a better future for their families and loved ones? To allow others to live healthy lives? To ease the wealth divide? To make themselves feel good? To know they have contributed to a better society?
I can think of tons of reasons. They’re mad rich anyway. I believe it’s fair that doctors and companies that make drugs should be incentivised and be allowed to get rich- but there should be a threshold on profit. Once a company makes £xmilli profit, their drugs patent become public domain.
If a doctor wants to make millions in private practice, they should have to do at least one month a year in public service to retain their license.
It’s all easy to do and doesn’t harm anyone. |

"We pay for it through taxes OP. Just a different method. At least it's not discriminatory like the system the US seems to have."
Honestly the health care system in America is not discriminatory at all....
If you’re poor you get the best health care money can provide.....for free...
If you own a home and get a terminal disease, your insurance company will cut you off treatment after a certain dollar amount is spent...
Then you have to sell your home, and only after you don’t own anything... the government will step in and offer you free healthcare...
So the poor people have it much better than the working people..... |

I think many talk the talk but doesn't actually get tested that often.
There's also a lot of cognitive dissonance about health risks - as if "regular testing" can prevent transmission
There's also the 3 month problem.
On the spot, pin prick testing whenever the tech becomes available will be revolutionary though. |

Personal responsibility should be key yes.
I would agree with those above that say regular testing would be cheaper
for the NHS in the long run though, rather than having outbreaks of infections.
Prevention is better than cure but you can say that about many things can't you lol. |

Are there really more swingers on this site than there are 'vanilla' folk who's objective on a Saturday night is bed a new sexual partner...? |

"The NHS is free at the point of delivery. We pay via our national insurance payments.
Partly correct. People think that 100% of NI goes to the NHS.. It doesn't. Some does but some is used as general taxation. However as most people find taxation for the NHS more palatable than taxation for other things it's a common myth that no government will rush to correct you on as it suits them for everyone to think it goes totally to the NHS. Just thought I'd share that with you. X
Fuck me!!!
Lovely offer, thank you X "
You're welcome x |

Sexual health service are only a small proportion of the the nhs budget and as people have suggested with it being a preventative service it saves money long term.
The biggest waste of money comes from inappropriate use of services, for example people who visit a&e when they have a cold/headache/blister ect or ambulance crews to have to attend social issues and course prank calls.
Another problem is the nhs was build 60 years ago when lifestyle factors weren't as big as an issue as they are now |

"We have a national health system in America but it’s only for the truly poor Americans..
The average person has to pay between $25-50 dollars every time we go to a doctor... we pay $100 if we take a ambulance, and $50-$100 dollars if we go to the emergency room...
We do have free clinics in America... but it’s only for the poor... if you have insurance, you’re not allowed to use these places....
So with swingers in UK going to the health clinic every 3 months for sti screening, plus the cost of a computer system to text results of test results....
Do feel this is waste of tax payers money?
I’ve read on these forums everyone goes to the doctors every 3 months.... with 30,000 members on Fab alone... this is potentially costing the government billions of dollars....

There isn't 30,000 swingers on fab. There's 2000. And 28000 dreamers and perverts. "
Brilliant love this quote |

Strange how the saying goes ‘america, land of the free’.....no drinking till age 21, 50mph speed limit, pay or die medical care (although the last one isn’t strictly true but the potential is there). |

Visiting GUM clinics helps identify if you have a problem. Therefore hopefully curing you of that problem and stopping you giving the problem to someone else and spreading it to others. If you are so worried, stop swinging or don't start. |

No it's not as you forgot to take into account the high taxation in the UK which is less when compared to America |
