ALEX Neil said a Yes vote is needed to protect the Scottish NHS from budget cuts from Westminster.
The Health Secretary spoke with health professionals in Glasgow and said austerity cuts were a direct threat to Scotland's budget.
He said: "The austerity, privatisation and patient charging agenda of Westminster will have a direct impact on how much money we'll have in future to spend on the NHS in Scotland if we stay in the UK. "
