The Daily Telegraph reports Labour’s plans would see GPs paid more for respecting the wishes of their patients.
A Labour government would “give patients back control over their own healthcare” and reverse the “managed decline” of the NHS, the shadow health secretary has said.
He said: “Fewer patients today are able to see the doctor of their choice, making do with whoever is available. “Labour will give patients back control over their own healthcare. No doubt there will be opposition. But we can overcome opposition to patient choice, providing that we give GPs the tools to do the job.”
According to Mr Streeting, Labour would reverse the decline in GPs by doubling the number of medical schools and providing mental health support in “every school and community”.
