Petition Fine NHS Patients who miss appointments

More details

Estimated £600m+ is wasted from the NHS by service users who do not attend appointments. This is not people who telephone departments cancelling with legitimate reasons. Just people who do not turn up. Please sign this petition to reduce our deficit.

The money wasted could go to treating patients who actually desperately need help.
