The BMA survey found that 3,250 "desperately needed" hospital beds in England and Wales were kept empty by health authorities to save money. John Chawnjr, chairman of the BMA consultants' committee, said 340,000 more operations could have been performed had the beds been in use. He said the NHS "funding crisis" was no better than it was three years ago. 101 Headlines 102 Newswatch Next News Newswatch Headlines Latest
