extraction_notes: "Extracted two claims about the NHS paradox: universal coverage with poor specialty outcomes, and the gatekeeping tradeoff. One enrichment to the medical care 10-20% claim showing international validation. The NHS case is a cautionary tale about system tradeoffs — no architecture solves all dimensions simultaneously. Key insight: different metrics tell different stories about the same system."
