NHS Speed up Drug Approval In UK !!!

NICE decides what drugs the NHS should pay for. The government is to set out plans to speed up approval of drugs used in the National Health Service in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
The National Institute of Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) can take up to two years to make a decision but ministers want this cut to six months.
Patients will have their legal rights to drugs recommended by NICE laid out in the planned NHS constitution.
Health trusts will no longer be able to refuse drugs on cost grounds alone.


The draft version of the constitution is expected to set out what patients and staff are entitled to from the NHS.
This includes "fundamental principles" such as universal access to healthcare, and to drugs and treatments approved by NICE.
