PIP Implant Scandal May Lead To Insurance Scheme in Britain ...

PIP implant scandal is yet not over, not at least in Britain where Sir Bruce Keogh who is heading the review into PIP implants has advised an insurance scheme for patients. As per Keogh, the insurance scheme for cosmetic surgery patients would help them a lot.

The Health Secretary, Andrew Lansley, appointed Keogh, who is also the Medical Director of the NHS. Andrew Lansley has asked him not only to look into the matter but also to come up with suggestions which could be used for the benefit of people who can face PIP implant difficulties again.

Till now, it has not been decided that whether the government would approve Keogh?s suggestion or not as so far no reported case has come to them which could reflect any mishappening in this regard. Still, the NHS has come forward to fulfill their moral duty and has announced that they would be providing free surgeries to breast cancer patients so they could get rid of those non-medical silicone implants.

As per the NHS report, they would providing free surgeries to 3,000 breast cancer patients, but there are 40, 000 women in total in Britain which have gone for PIP implants. Though the NHS has asked three other private firms which has conducted rest of the operation to step up to their moral duties, none of them has assured that they would conduct free removal surgeries.

The three medical places which have performed breast implants operations are Transform, the Harley Medical Group and Surgicare. All three of them have declined to perform free surgeries for their patients.

In this scenario if Keogh?s insurance scheme is approved then patients would derive a lot of benefit and would get further protection from such incidences. Talking about his suggestion, he said, "Captured the flavour of where we want to go?.
