Buying your way to better health can come at the expense of others

People with private health insurance can jump the public health care queue by using private health services instead. Is there really anything wrong with that? There are two main theories: 1) If the wealthiest people use private health services more, the public health care system will have more capacity for the rest of us; and 2) Private health services divert resources away from the public health care system, which consequently becomes worse.
