According to Sky News:

The health secretary is taking inspiration from Japan in his bid to change how Britons are treated by the NHS.

Wes Streeting has said he's interested in the idea of "health MOTs" for Britain's older citizens, evoking how the Asian island nation relies on personalised medical plans for its ageing population.

Apparently Mr Streeting does not realise that many older UK residents, those that can afford it, have been getting health MOTs privately for many years as bizarrely this is an essential service that the NHS fails to offer.

Private providers such as Bluecrest and the Swedish start-up Neko Health are among many profiting from the lack of NHS provision.

You don't need to look to Japan for guidance, although their provision for older people is far in advance of what is offered in the UK.

In the UK, you can't  even get an older person discharged from hospital when there is no care-at-home provision available due to lack of funding and overstretched local care services.

He could start by resolving this issue first as this nonsense is blocking beds all over Britain.

When are these guys in government going to wake up?
