The NHS could quite easily cope with the medical provision for the UK's population if the other agencies and indeed the general population had their own affairs in order.  The problems within the NHS are caused by (amongst other things) local authorities using hospitals as a dumping ground for the aged because they haven't organised or maintained the care facilites which they are tasked to provide.  Also, and this is what gets me the issue of families who can't be bothered to accept their responsibility for the care of their own aging parents or family members.

A 5 year old report on the creditworthiness of countries is a rather odd prop to support a rather complex social issue like healthcare.
