I wouldn't call it a Pandora's box.
There's already many treatments not available on the NHS but available elsewhere. Normally for money.
We're not talking about privitisation here. It's not about excluding the poor or benefitting the rich.
It would cost nothing financially to be on the 'receivers list', just a commitment to be on the 'donor's list'.
I really don't see how this challenges the principle of universal health care free at the point of need.
