There's something I don't understand in this article,
allegedly, there were posters on the wall in radiology giving the times for results to be returned:
"A teacher from the north-east who asked not to be named said she borrowed £350 for an MRI scan. 'At the appointment, there were posters on the walls stating times for the return of results: three days for private, three weeks for NHS.' ".
I live in Luxembourg where I have needed (unfortunately) numerous CT scans and more recently an MRI scan. In every case. after the radiologist has done his thing which takes from 20 to 40 minutes, I am presented with a DVD containing the images from the CT scan or MRI scan along with the radiologists report.
If they can do it in a maximum of 40 minutes here, how come it takes a minimum of 3 days in the UK and that's only if you go private!
