Yes, but on average it seems not to work that well, which the article tries to show. Apparently the possibility of waiting 2 months for a specialist (in reality I very rarely see such situation) seems to be better than the current system in the US.

Also, in many systems (excepting Canada, where I believe there is no alternate private system) you can see a specialist with no wait if you're willing to pay for it.
