In a recent article in The Times, cancer sufferers were found to have been treated more quickly if they had private medical insurance than those using purely NHS facilities. The Times quotes one expert as saying:

In some areas, NHS treatment is extremely quick and efficient but we have seen many incidents where initial consultations, scans and x-rays can be particularly prolonged which means there are months of waiting before diagnosis. Also in many cases, drugs that are rationed on the NHS may be made available to people with Private Health Care.
