NHS (National Health Service UK)
The NHS employs more than 1.7m people. Of those, just under half are clinically qualified, including 120,000 hospital doctors, 40,000 general practitioners (GPs), 400,000 nurses and 25,000 ambulance staff.
Only the Chinese People’s Liberation Army, the Wal-Mart supermarket chain and the Indian Railways directly employ more people.
The NHS in England is the biggest part of the system by far, catering to a population of 51m and employing more than 1.3m people. The NHS in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland employ 165,000, 90,000 and 67,000 people respectively.
The number of patients using the NHS is equally huge. On average, it deals with 1m patients every 36 hours. That’s 463 people a minute or almost eight a second. Each week, 700,000 people will visit an NHS dentist, while a further 3,000 will have a heart operation. Each GP in the nation’s 10,000-plus practices sees an average of 140 patients a week.

Structure
The Department of Health controls the NHS. The secretary of
state for health is the head of the Department of Health and reports to
the prime minister. The Department of Health controls England’s 10
Strategic Health Authorities (SHAs), which oversee all NHS activities in
England. In turn, each SHA supervises all the NHS trusts in its area.
The devolved administrations of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland run
their local NHS services separately.
Performance
It is difficult to measure the efficiency of healthcare
systems. The NHS, like other healthcare systems, has never consistently
and systematically measured changes in its patients’ health. As a
result, it’s impossible to say exactly how much the nation's health
improves for each pound spent by the NHS.
In the UK life expectancy has been rising and infant mortality has been falling since the NHS was established. Both figures compare favourably with other nations. Surveys also show that patients are generally satisfied with the care they receive from the NHS. Importantly, people who have had recent direct experience of the NHS tend to report being more satisfied than people who have not.
