How does the NHS compare to the health care systems of other countries? Comparing the health care systems of different countries can help politicians and policy‑makers assess how the UK health care system is performing and where it could improve.
For our research, we reviewed the academic literature on previous attempts to compare health care systems, analysed quantitative data on health system performance, and interviewed experts in comparative health policy.
We found the UK health care system has fewer key resources than its peers. It performs relatively well on some measures of efficiency but waiting times for common procedures were ‘middle-of-the-pack’ before the Covid-19 pandemic and have deteriorated sharply since. The King's Fund
