The Dutch system offers a huge choice of insurers, some are not for profit companies, some specialize in certain areas (like end of life care), along with strong government cost control it looks nothing like the USA system.
Health care is super complex, no doubt some experts have good reasons to replace the NHS with a similar system.
But I don't think the NHS is that broken it needs replaced...and any replacement will cause new issues for sure.

Interesting. I wasn't aware of that. Perhaps there are private models that can be made to work over the long term (although, likewise, I'm certainly not in favour).
