The provision of hospital beds in Britain has plunged in the past eight years to one of the lowest levels in Europe.
The number of beds per person has dropped 14 per cent since 2000 - to below the rate for Latvia, Estonia and Macedonia.
The UK has only 389 hospital beds per 100,000 inhabitants, even when taking into account both private and NHS beds.
Below average: Britain is ranked 25th on the provision of hospital beds
This is well below the EU average of 590 beds per 100,000 inhabitants.
The UK is ranked 25th out of 32 European countries. Only Cyprus, Portugal, Denmark, Spain, Sweden, Turkey and Malta perform worse.
