Rejected petition Bring the “Right to Choose” option to the Welsh NHS
If you are based in England under the NHS you now have a legal right to choose your mental healthcare provider and your choice of mental healthcare team. This important right means that, for instance, should you decide the waiting time for your ADHD assessment is too long, then you can choose alternative providers that meet NHS standards and costs.
I believe that people living in Wales deserve the same opportunity, instead of a years long waiting list or thousands of pounds in private diagnoses.
