What he meant was Wales relies too much on sending people to hospital when they could be treated by primary care, GPs and alternative methods.

He kind of has a point but realistically what the whole country needs are better equipped hospitals.
You could make exactly the same point in respect of England, Scotland and Northern Ireland. We should be changing our emphasis to preventative methods and health care outside the hospital system wherever possible. The whole system needs streamlining. For example, if your GP says you need a scan, it should not be necessary to then go to the hospital for a second appointment with a hospital doctor or consultant. The appointment should be booked online by the GP, saving valuable hospital time.

It is not a valid excuse for the poor performance of the Welsh NHS compared with the other UK regions.
