> One issue with the NHS is that I get the impression the information they publish that strongly respects their goals and desires perhaps to the detriment of patients sometimes.

Do you have data that supports the NHS withholding or advising against necessary care that results in worse patient outcomes?

More utilization is not inherently better, and even in the systems like the NHS, everyone is incented heavily to keep patients healthy and out of the hospital system. The idea that they want you to be sicker rather than provide relatively cheap preventive care is, generally, absolute nonsense.
