Public healthcare can also suck balls indeed, but to compare the same things, I would rather pay for well-functioning public healthcare than for well-functioning private healthcare. The other insurer's incentives (max profit) are just less likely to be aligned with mine (good health) in the private system.

The Swiss fully private system seems reasonable, Netherlands also to a degree. They are pretty efficient. Private but heavily regulated seems like a good balance.
