Hospitals should be run more like TV show Bargain Hunt to ensure the NHS gets the best value for money, a health minister said yesterday.
Conservative Dan Poulter said hospitals should take a leaf out of the book of the programme?s former host, antiques expert David Dickinson.
Dr Poulter said: ?I?m not expecting a David Dickinson at every hospital, but if we want to cut waste in our NHS and divert more money into front line patient care, the health service needs to know a good bargain when it sees one.

Doesn't he realise that most contestants on Bargain Hunt end up making losses? And sometimes huge losses? 🙄

Wasn't that long ago it was suggested running NHS like PC world. If we wait long enough a children's cartoon should get a mention soon.
