I'm not sure Wikipedia is correct.Lots of private insurance companies and clinics/hospitals in the U.K. plus the government side of things is managed by trusts who receive funding from central government.

But from the Forbes articles, very few countries are single payer but the U.K. is one. But that doesn't mean it can't have the private sector. Note the last paragraph. UK NHS is a National and single payer system.
