Not only is she paying her National Insurance, she is also paying an insurance company, and both are perfectly content with taking her money, but letting her die. This is the state of the country.
The irony is, if she were an illegal immigrant refused asylum, she would have got everything for free (ostensibly there is a charge but there is no mandate to prove ability to pay before treatment, and payments are never followed up).
That is the healthcare system in America , insurance companies decide if you get you treatment paid for or not being that hospital bills can reach a million dollars quite easily its a horrific system that Jeremy hunt wanted for us.

There's treatment out there that could ease my suffering. it wouldn't cure me but would make life tolerable. NICE have held back on approving it though worldwide it has helped others. I can't even get the treatment privately in the UK due to the NICE restrictions.
it,s AMERICAN style, CANCER IS MAN MADE SAY,S IT ALL,LEAKING NUKE SIGHTS THAT MCANN DR STATED THAT THEY WOULD NOT CAUSE CANCERS, THE ONLY DR THAT CHOSE TO MAKE THAT STATEMENT, WHEN ALL OTHERS REFUSED (COUGH SPLUTTER)
I was in a pub years ago a lady came in with pictures of a sick child to give cash for treatment we all paid a lot of money only was told it was a rip-of . if this woman is being truthful the NHS should help her my heart goes to her .
I thought the caller said the treatment isn't approved for use in the NHS but is allowed to be used privately. If I understand this correctly, I'd have to listen again.
Because for the past 14 years the Tories have been giving money to the private companies (that includes water and train companies) instead of funding the actual company.
@@MisfitGranny Yes, the initial treatment was just at the trial stage, which is why the insurers wouldn't pay. It is now NICE approved but requires the right combination of specialists, which she claims she has, but the insurance company are apparently requiring that the treatment needs to be 'more widely used in the UK', which sounds pretty suspect, and she may be able to take legal action against them for this.

As a three time head and neck cancer survivor. Who also had to pay £58k for Cancer no2 (surgery and radiation) to be addressed privately in London. Due to the South West not being able to deal with it. Due to “complexity and lack of available resources”. Then I have spent the last 8 years… wrestling to gain basic care to address the life changing chronic illness and life changing disabilities. That cancer “treatment” has left me in. The brutal state of medical care in this nation is a joke… only no one is laughing!!! 😔 My primary concern here, is not for myself. But for YOU and anyone else left to face this truly brutal situation.
Why isn't the media alerting everyone to this? Pay taxes for 40 years then be left to die because you're not worth the cost of life saving medications? I'd never heard of the Post Office scandal until I saw Toby Jones reporting the facts. Toby Jones is an actor, he shouldn't be the one having to educate the entire population. Actors can't replace honest politicians and serious journalists but it seems like a few feel obliged to try. This is just wrong. Liz Truss wanted to cut cancer treatments to fund tax cuts.

Matthew Wright has been such a welcome addition to LBC. (Unlike some others i wont bother to name.) Warm wishes of support and love for rhis poor woman.
What a phone call. Sending love. Cancer treatment should be free. Insurance company should be named and the CEO should speak to her directly and pay the lady
As a nurse in the NHS I'm so sorry this is happening to you. We love to help and care for you but we just don't have the resources. It's so heartbreaking to be doing my job at the moment. I don't even know at times what to say to patients 😭😭😭😭
Please name the insurance fund . When people see this video and are insured by them, they will be abandoned. My heart goes out to Carol and family. ❤❤❤❤
Imagine a world where footballers and bankers have got more money than they will ever need . 😢 . There is something seriously wrong here , always money for war . 😢 . Poor woman . Poor woman .
No, adopt a European style non profit healthcare system, otherwise the UK will end up like the US with over burdened public health, and very expensive private healthcare.
You need to name the company. This is how private healthcare works. People don't know that even though the nhs gives treatment to patients ,private healthcare denies treatment is effective and refuses treatment to most patients for costly treatment. The interview with bernie sanders about medical bankruptcy in america is an eye opener. People with private health insurance see consultants fast and skip treatment queues. Many are seen by nhs consultants in nhs hospitals, are treated in nhs hospitals using nhs supplies and equipment. If something goes wrong,when a private health company carries out an operation,you have no chance of receiving compensation or of anyone being held to account. And then there is insourcing . This is when private health companies are allowed to use nhs hospitals,equipment and treatments at night. The company hires their staff from the nhs staff pool,pays them better wages and poaches nhs staff out of the nhs.
Wow, after hearing this heartbreaking story, your mind goes to immigrants. What the media has done to the minds of our people is monstrous. Look what it’s turned you into. 😔
I’m amazed that you think that private companies are affected by the 8.5 million pounds a day spent on immigration. Did you not hear this woman saying it’s a PRIVATE healthcare company, not the NHS? It’d make no difference.
I just tried to donate £2.00 because that is all I had in my bank account until Monday, but the minimum donation is £5. Sorry, I cannot do it today. Best wishes with your journey ❤
Just contrast this awful situation to the £45 million rise handed out to Charlie boy who doesn't even need the money. Please redirect this revenue to cancer patients !
And he got his cancer treatment straight away it wouldn't have mattered what cancer he had and how long or how much it would have cost he would have got it no problem all at the cost of the tax payer
OMG, this call was absolutely heartbreaking. I hope and pray that this lady beats this cancer, gets back to full health and is fully financially compensated. So sad to hear Carol, having to beg. My thoughts and prayers, go fund me page noted 🙏
I dont know the about this particular medicine but there was the case of Turing pharmaceuticals that increased prices on one drug. It went from $13.50 to $750 over night. They expected the insurance companies or governments with socialised medicine to just pay up They did to some extent and Turing paid out big dividends. I wouldn't be surprised if this is widespread in the industry.
This demonstrates how private medicine has got its tentacles deeply entrenched in the UK. The NHS cannot provide this life saving treatment because the privateers charge too much. Deliberate underfunding of the NHS has allowed private medicine in. Surviving this cancer depends on having enormous stashes of wealth. 38 degrees campaigned on saving the NHS from private companies 13 years ago, and the public ignored the truth. I personally went out on the street to spread this message and people showed no interest. This is the result.
What can we do now then? It's so wrong. This woman should not have to beg. The NHS should be regulated by the government so this type of thing is not allowed or have they sold it off on the cheap like Brown did with our gold?
@ryand141 we have not lived in a democracy for decades. The free for all that has taken place here in the UK has made life difficult for many and unbearable for some and it is due to government ( including Blairs and Brown's) not putting in policies to protect the people from rampant neoliberalism.The problem is that it is the same few wealthg people accruing money and assets. Innequality is destroying the UK.Corporations and banks control politics now. I am keeping my fingers crossed that Starmer is a social democrat (at the very least)and hopefully he will fix the NHS....but sadly, our water, energy and some rail and bus services are owned by foreign countries, so what does that tell you? What other country has sold so many of their public services? Check out Gary Economics. He explains how money works, and how innequality destroys countries.
@ryand141 my long reply did not get through to you. Eventually wrestle our public services out of the hands of foreign countries, who only have responsibility to their shareholders. Re nationalise...water, energy, rail, buses....
@@HaydenCyclist you have got to be joking, WHO rates our health provision at 17th out of 200+ countries. Do you realise how dire health provision is in most of the World and funding astronomically priced experimental treatment for hundreds of conditions is not feasible anywhere, even in countries with great provision. Which government has a blank cheque to pay for literally any treatment drug companies come up with?
@gerardmackay8909 most of the world doesn't pay the extortionate prices America and Britain do for medicines, for example. A ventolin inhaler costs the NHS 48 pounds for each one. Same everything is sold to the French for less than 5 euros. We are being fleeced by massive corporations who are hollowing out the NHS.
Wow poor lady at the end of her tether, I really hope she gets her treatment sorted and lives to a ripe old age to see her family grow up and prosper, ❤❤❤❤❤, sending her lots of love n hugs.
This is heartbreaking. My wife died after a seven year battle with cancer, all covered by the NHS including her last week in a hospice. Stories like this need to be more widely shared and people need to understand that this will be the future for all treatments in the UK, if the Conservatives (and Reform) regain control of the country for any length of time. My sister has had at least 4 life saving heart operations, yet she still steadfastly backs the political party that will take free at the point of service healthcare away from her own children and grandchildren. Makes my blood boil.
Wasnt it Blair that heavily invested in PFI and as such indebted the NHS to massive interest debts and £500 charges to change a lightbulb as contracted. Therefore large amounts of NHS budgets went to paying private debt. Stop with the political rhetoric as they're all the same.
What a story. My only experience of private medical has to be a big thank you to the person I met. My son had two ingrowing toe nails and after over a year of procrastination from the NHS, which was during the covid crisis, I took him to see a specialist privately. He said both nails needed attention and he could do it but it would cost hundreds, do I have insurance?. I said no but wanted them doing and would pay myself as it wasn't being done by the NHS. He was disgusted and wrote a 2 page report to my local health authority. That did the trick, they booked him in and the job was done within 2 weeks. I still had a bill for his consultation and report but boy that was money well spent, he was worth it.
I'm to glad to hear that the 2 page report got the job done. However, this poor lady has CANCER not just ingrown toenails which even if you had to pay out yourself would have only been in the hundreds. Carol has had to pay out THOUSANDS of pounds for her treatment to keep her alive. What is even the point of your comment? Ingrown toenails are VERY different to CANCER! If only a 2 page report would help her 🙄
My 21 year old daughter has been told she is uninsurable by private healthcare due to a defective gene that has caused several chronic conditions. Disgusting. Currently she has been waiting 18 months for an ‘urgent’ dermatology appointment only to be told they are only seeing priority patients at the moment. She is so strong and brave I am so proud of her attitude to overcome everything that’s been thrown at her.
we are in a dispute and working with the ombudsman so at the moment we are not allowed but i want to scream their name out really. Thank you for your kind comments and support we really do appreciate your help more than you will ever know x
This is very sad and emotional! This poor woman should get free treatments! She has paid her taxes and worked! She wants to live to help her family! Somebody should help this woman in her hour of need!
We are genuinely so blessed. We complain so much and there are people like this who have absolutely tragic problems. I will be looking at her GoFund Me. This is absolutely disgusting that she's been left in this situation. Prayers that this operation goes well for her and she has full health and long life.
Surely there must be someone who can investigate this Insurance company on her behalf as this is absolutely disgusting to listen too!! 😢😢😢😢😡😡😡😡 someone at this company needs to held accountable
If there's one Carol then there's a thousand Carols. She says we should read the small print but how do any of us know the first thing about what we may or may not get one day and what we'll need. She's done nothing wrong - and certainly made no error that wouldn't befall us all. Healthcare should be universal.
That is disgusting. This insurance company needs to be named and shamed.

I am keeping my fingers crossed that Starmer is a social democrat (at the very least)and hopefully he will fix the NHS....but sadly, our water, energy and some rail and bus services are owned by foreign countries, so what does that tell you? What other country has sold so many of their public services?
Check out Gary Economics. He explains how money works, and how innequality destroys countries.
They spent all the money on translation. University hospital Coventry had them on stand by a few years ago
@ryand141 my long reply did not get through to you.
Eventually wrestle our public services out of the hands of foreign countries, who only have responsibility to their shareholders.
Re nationalise...water, energy, rail, buses....
Jesus this is heartbreaking poor woman
This country is sick
The world is sick, buddy.
@joshuaDstarks bro, this is an English and British problem, not a global problem!
@@HaydenCyclist you have got to be joking, WHO rates our health provision at 17th out of 200+ countries. Do you realise how dire health provision is in most of the World and funding astronomically priced experimental treatment for hundreds of conditions is not feasible anywhere, even in countries with great provision. Which government has a blank cheque to pay for literally any treatment drug companies come up with?
@gerardmackay8909 most of the world doesn't pay the extortionate prices America and Britain do for medicines, for example. A ventolin inhaler costs the NHS 48 pounds for each one.
Same everything is sold to the French for less than 5 euros.
We are being fleeced by massive corporations who are hollowing out the NHS.
@gerardmackay8909 we pay 48 pounds for a ventolin inhaler which costs the EU less than 4 euros.
We're being gouged, like the Americans.
Heart breaking. I’ve donated. Best of luck to her 💔
Wow poor lady at the end of her tether, I really hope she gets her treatment sorted and lives to a ripe old age to see her family grow up and prosper, ❤❤❤❤❤, sending her lots of love n hugs.
I wish you all the best, will donate now 🙏 Hope you recover quickly.
This is the state of the country right now. Hard working people who pay taxes are being let down nothing works.
So much love beloved🙏❤🙏
This breaks my heart.
I’m praying for this woman x
This had be in tears. Please what is her go fund me page. Wishing Carol all the best.
In the description there is a link to it
carol player go fund me ❤❤❤
OMG that poor lady and her family, sending prayers 🙏 ❤
This is heartbreaking. My wife died after a seven year battle with cancer, all covered by the NHS including her last week in a hospice. Stories like this need to be more widely shared and people need to understand that this will be the future for all treatments in the UK, if the Conservatives (and Reform) regain control of the country for any length of time. My sister has had at least 4 life saving heart operations, yet she still steadfastly backs the political party that will take free at the point of service healthcare away from her own children and grandchildren. Makes my blood boil.
Wasnt it Blair that heavily invested in PFI and as such indebted the NHS to massive interest debts and £500 charges to change a lightbulb as contracted. Therefore large amounts of NHS budgets went to paying private debt. Stop with the political rhetoric as they're all the same.
Just donated, poor woman. I myself have just been given a cancer diagnosis. Early days. All my love Carol to you and family.❤❤❤
This is so so sad
Donated. My heart breaks for this lady ❤
What a story.
My only experience of private medical has to be a big thank you to the person I met.
My son had two ingrowing toe nails and after over a year of procrastination from the NHS, which was during the covid crisis, I took him to see a specialist privately.
He said both nails needed attention and he could do it but it would cost hundreds, do I have insurance?. I said no but wanted them doing and would pay myself as it wasn't being done by the NHS. He was disgusted and wrote a 2 page report to my local health authority. That did the trick, they booked him in and the job was done within 2 weeks.
I still had a bill for his consultation and report but boy that was money well spent, he was worth it.
You've no idea, have you?
Cool story...but your son wasn't going to die was he!!
I'm to glad to hear that the 2 page report got the job done. However, this poor lady has CANCER not just ingrown toenails which even if you had to pay out yourself would have only been in the hundreds. Carol has had to pay out THOUSANDS of pounds for her treatment to keep her alive.
What is even the point of your comment? Ingrown toenails are VERY different to CANCER! If only a 2 page report would help her 🙄
Absolutely heartbreaking but one of many 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
My 21 year old daughter has been told she is uninsurable by private healthcare due to a defective gene that has caused several chronic conditions. Disgusting. Currently she has been waiting 18 months for an ‘urgent’ dermatology appointment only to be told they are only seeing priority patients at the moment.
She is so strong and brave I am so proud of her attitude to overcome everything that’s been thrown at her.
They call the insurance game “ the risk business “. The risk for the companies is minimal…
Please identify the insurance company; this is virtually certainly not the only case where they are stiffing their customers.
we are in a dispute and working with the ombudsman so at the moment we are not allowed but i want to scream their name out really. Thank you for your kind comments and support we really do appreciate your help more than you will ever know x
I sat and heard this morning how sad feel for her 💔
So sad, very sad
What a caller...respect...so sad...it shouldnt be down to cost
She won’t mention the company , why not , name and shame them
Absolutely heartbreaking.
Yes it is.😂
This is very sad and emotional!
This poor woman should get free treatments!
She has paid her taxes and worked!
She wants to live to help her family!
Somebody should help this woman in her hour of need!
We are genuinely so blessed. We complain so much and there are people like this who have absolutely tragic problems. I will be looking at her GoFund Me. This is absolutely disgusting that she's been left in this situation. Prayers that this operation goes well for her and she has full health and long life.
Omg this poor lady .
that's terrible , and sad , someone out there must help her
That’s horrible the cost for the woman with cancer!!! The NHS got on top of my cancer immediately and I’m very grateful!
That’s heart breaking 😢 Had to donate and hope the page works in providing the financial support she needs for upcoming treatment.
Surely there must be someone who can investigate this Insurance company on her behalf as this is absolutely disgusting to listen too!! 😢😢😢😢😡😡😡😡 someone at this company needs to held accountable
Keep going girl! Keep going!
❤❤❤ prayers and love for Carol and others suffering from private medicine profiteers.
Poor woman 😢. I hope she gets help.
Donated the smallest amount but im sharing on facebook too x
Absolutely heartbreaking 💔😢🙏
If there's one Carol then there's a thousand Carols. She says we should read the small print but how do any of us know the first thing about what we may or may not get one day and what we'll need. She's done nothing wrong - and certainly made no error that wouldn't befall us all. Healthcare should be universal.
Absolutely shocking and heart breaking 😢❤
This is cruelty. Incredibly sad for this lady ❤
