I have to admit it was the most difficult one to summarize so far; it is the most integrated healthcare systems I’ve studied yet, its admin side is awfully messy, and its “patient” one is so dead simple it was difficult to follow the structure I set up for the previous pieces. Still, I am happy with the end result, which you can check here: British NHS.

Need a teaser like last time?
By reading it you’ll discover that the British System:

  1. Is most cashless;
  2. Is so good private insurances only insure 11% of britons;
  3. Is much more efficient than the French or the Australian one at managing its cost
