The future of private healthcare

Interesting snippet from the mouth of a Health PPS on Saturday. He was suggesting that once the NHS get the GP to Operating Theatre maximum waiting list down to 9 weeks, then the private sector would effectively be out of business and all the facilities and staff currently tied up in the private sector would then be able to be picked up by the NHS.

I think that there would be some private sector, there's always going to be a market for individual rooms, hotel like service, but is this guy just being too optimistic?
