The NHS (National Health Service) in the UK is a publicly funded and publicly provided healthcare system. It was established in 1948 to provide healthcare services that are free at the point of use for residents. While some private healthcare services exist alongside the NHS, the core services of the NHS are funded through taxation and are designed to ensure access to healthcare for all citizens.
The NHS is a public sector organistion, funded by the taxpayer and with the main goal of providing a service (as opposed to generating a profit as is the case with organisations in the private sector).
the competitors are the private health services e.g. private hospitals, private dentists and private doctors
