Lord Darzi: 'If we predict disease we can prevent it'
The Prime Minister Theresa May has announced plans to give the NHS nearly 拢400m more a week by the year 2023. She said it will be part-funded by the Brexit dividend - the money we don't send to the European Union - and part-funded by higher taxes.
Lord Darzi is a former health minister and a surgeon who is heading a review that aims to examine the state of quality in health and care services ahead of the NHS's 70th birthday.
He tells Radio 4's World at One that the new funding should be used to invest more in public health, "and really change the mindset from a sickness service to a health and well-being service".
