The German system is in many ways a mix of private and public. We have choices here, you choose your doctor as you please, 97% of them are in the universal care system and all you have to do is give them your insurance card before the appointment. They also treat patients who are in the private system.
About 3% of doctors only work on private basis. Many of them are doctors who are older, retired and their contract with universal ended but they still want to work a little bit.
