It really isn't that simple
Many of the managers are also fettered by options, guidelines and rules. They'd like to reallocate resources but aren't permitted to, and have to hit targets. It's not true that the managers aren't under pressure, or that they don't want to help people, either.

If you want to assign blame, target mis-spending on short term solutions when a longer term vision would be more sensible. Blame political interference, and inappropriate targets.

Blame
running a health service like a Soviet five year plan.
