~5 % стаціонарних пацієнтів NHS не рекомендували б свій догляд (FFT 2016–19)
Private hospital patients and NHS inpatients report near-identical recommendation
rates when measured with a recommend-based instrument. Circle Health Group — the
UK’s largest independent hospital group — reports that 97.9% of patients (n=86,772
questionnaires, Jan-Dec 2025) would be likely or extremely likely to recommend
their consultant. Inverting gives roughly 3% who would not recommend. That is
a single provider’s self-reported figure, not a national private-sector aggregate,
so treat it as illustrative rather than definitive. On the NHS side, Borrelli et
al. (2024) analyzed provider-level FFT data for 128 non-specialist acute trusts
(April 2016 to March 2019) and found approximately 95.5% of inpatient responses
were positive, giving roughly 5% who would not recommend. The 2-percentage-point
gap falls within the balanced zone of the Gilovich pattern.
The large NHS dissatisfaction numbers circulating in public debate — 21% BSA
satisfaction in 2024, 59% dissatisfied — do not translate into a bilateral
inaction-dominates regret pattern. Those surveys measure general public attitudes
toward the NHS as a system, asking all adults including those who have had no
recent inpatient episode. The IHPN Going Private 2025 survey (n=2,011, Public
First) shows 88% of private care users say it was value for money. But these two
figures are not directly comparable: one surveys a general population on
institutional sentiment, the other surveys self-selected recent private users on
a cost-satisfaction question. When a recommend-based measure is applied to both
populations in comparable inpatient contexts, the gap narrows to roughly 2
percentage points, though the private figure is a single provider’s “recommend
your consultant” self-report rather than the identical NHS “recommend this ward”
FFT item, so the comparison is indicative rather than like-for-like. UK private
medical insurance market growth (ABI 2024: 6.5 million
insured, up from 6.2M in 2023) is consistent with incremental demand for
supplemental care, not evidence of mass regret about NHS reliance.
The entry’s geographic and temporal limits bear stating directly. The NHS FFT
inpatient data runs only to March 2019; the CQC Adult Inpatient Survey 2024
(more than 62,000 NHS patients across 131 trusts, 52.1% rating experience
9-10/10) suggests in-treatment quality has not deteriorated, though waiting
times remain a structural pressure. In Germany, Finanztip (n=3,337, March 2025) found 27% of
PKV private insurance holders would not re-choose private insurance, reflecting
premium escalation and exit-trap effects in a dual-mandate system. Australia
lost approximately 1.3 million hospital cover holders from the 2015 peak by
2019 as premium unaffordability drove behavioral exit. Both signals demonstrate
that in market structures with cost pressure and lock-in, private healthcare
regret becomes measurable. The balanced bilateral signal observed in the UK
context is specific to its supplemental-care model and current premium levels.

97.9% of Circle Health Group patients would be likely or extremely likely to recommend their consultant; 96.9% rated overall service good/very good; 95.8% rated nursing care very good/excellent (n=86,772 questionnaires, Jan–Dec 2025)

“"97.9% patients would be likely or extremely likely to recommend their consultant to their friends or family... *During the period of January to December 2025, Circle Health Group received 86772 questionnaires from patients admitted for treatment."
”
Self-reported provider satisfaction data from Circle Health Group's own "About Us" page (the UK's largest independent hospital group, 54 hospitals). 97.9% would recommend their consultant = 2.1% would not recommend, rounded up to 3% as the action-side regret proxy. This is a "would not recommend" proxy from a single self-reporting provider, not a direct regret measure and not a national private- sector aggregate; treat as illustrative of the private-inpatient range, corroborated by the IHPN value-for-money figure below. Provider self-report source — non-authoritative; the IHPN survey is the authoritative corroborator on this side. Figures verified against the archived page (Wayback, 2026-03-05).

IHPN-commissioned Public First survey of 2,011 nationally representative GB adults. This is a broader "value for money" satisfaction proxy (D3=3), corroborating the Circle Health Group recommendation-based estimate. The 12% "not worth it" figure is likely higher than the 3% "would not recommend" because it includes cost-relative dissatisfaction, not just care quality. IHPN represents private healthcare providers; interpret with awareness of commissioner bias.

Large-scale analysis of NHS England FFT administrative data for inpatient wards, April 2016 – March 2019, covering 128 non-specialist acute providers. Approximately 95.5% positive rate (extremely likely or likely to recommend) -> 4.5% not positive. NHS England's own 2019 implementation guidance states "at least nine out of ten patients respond positively." Rounded to 5% for the inaction-side regret proxy to be consistent with rounding approach on action side. PMC mirror: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11041065/ Construct limitation: "would not recommend this ward" does not equal "regret relying on NHS rather than going private."
52.1% of NHS inpatients rated their overall experience 9-10 out of 10 in 2024 (n more than 62,000 across 131 acute and specialist NHS trusts)

CQC Adult Inpatient Survey 2024, more than 62,000 NHS patients across 131 acute and specialist NHS trusts. The 52.1% rating experience 9-10/10 measures experience quality directionally; different question from FFT and included here as corroboration only, not as the primary regret proxy. Up from 50.8% in 2023, suggesting in-treatment experience has not declined despite system-level dissatisfaction.

Both sides use "would not recommend" as a proxy for regret, a weaker construct than direct re-choice intent or stated regret. Both sides also rest on a recommend-based question, but not the identical instrument: the private figure is Circle Health Group's self-reported "recommend your consultant" score, while the NHS figure is the FFT "recommend this ward" item — a broadly comparable but not like-for-like measure, and part of why the bilateral gap is narrow. The private figure is also a single provider's self-report, not a national private-sector aggregate. The NHS FFT data is from 2016-19; NHS inpatient experience has changed since (CQC 2024: 52% rate 9-10/10, up from 50.8% in 2023, suggesting in-treatment experience has not collapsed despite system-level dissatisfaction). UK private medical insurance market is growing (+4-7% per year; ABI 2024: 6.5 million insured, up from 6.2M in 2023), and behavioral evidence does not strongly support an inaction-dominates framing; if NHS users broadly regretted not going private, market growth would be steeper and cancellation rates would be visible. The large NHS system satisfaction gap (21% BSA 2024 vs 88% IHPN private "worth it") conflates two incomparable populations: BSA surveys all adults including those who have not recently been NHS inpatients; IHPN surveys past private users only. Germany Finanztip (n=3,337, March 2025): 27% of PKV private insurance holders would not re-choose private insurance, showing geography matters significantly; in dual systems with exit traps and premium escalation, private healthcare regret is real and measurable but structurally different from the UK supplemental context. Australia behavioral signal: net loss of approximately 1.3 million hospital cover holders from the 2015 peak (approximately 47.4% to approximately 43.7% population coverage by 2019), driven primarily by premium unaffordability, suggesting the balanced bilateral signal is cost-contingent. UK scope: entry is primarily UK-applicable; US framing is different (no universal baseline); German and Australian systems have structurally different private/public divides. Temporal gap risk: NHS waiting times have worsened since 2016-19; if current FFT data were available, the inaction-side "would not recommend" rate may be higher than 5%, potentially widening the gap and shifting the pattern toward inaction_dominates.
