The way they handle this in many European countries is by setting up public-private partnerships between governments and private hospitals. If the wait is longer than 90 days for elective and non-emergency treatment at a public hospital, the patient can choose to go to a private hospital if you wish at no expense to the patient. Emergency treatment is always dealt with immediately, of course.
