The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) will not change the fact that it is up to UK Governments alone to decide how UK public services, including the NHS, are run. The UK has insisted on maintaining the same safeguards for the NHS in TTIP as it has in all recent trade agreements.
