There isn't. At least not unless your condition is so serious and 
unusual that major city hospitals lack expertise in it. This applied to 
a friend from Manchester who was shipped to Addenbrokes in Cambridge for 
a liver transplant after catching hepatitis in a football match. Sadly 
even their expertise was insufficient to prevent his demise.

Likewise in the early days of heart transplants almost all of them were 
done at Papworth where the first UK procedure was done.

If you choose to go privately then you can shop around but then you are 
restricted to those surgeons who do private work. There are plenty of 
excellent surgeons who work almost entirely for the NHS.

The most rational one is that the procedures done should have a better 
than evens chance of improving the life quality and duration of the 
patient. No point in extending life at the expense of massive invasive 
surgery from which there is a negligible chance of recovery.

This is a bit of a puzzle. There are a few run down places in the UK now 
where GP's are retiring and the NHS deal is insufficiently good for new 
graduates to want to take up the vacant posts. But even the poorest 
areas have GP surgeries (though the doctors don't live in them).

You presuppose that there is a single best doctor. If the whole system 
is to work you want a doctor who is sufficiently good to be able to do 
the job well enough. Plenty of common procedures do not need wizard 
skills to do them. And in the NHS when such skills are required the 
system automatically routes patients to doctors/surgeons with the right 
skill levels. No system is perfect but from what I have seen it is very 
good at matching condition to appropriately skilled surgeon (indeed 
better than the private sector in that respect).

Iff the right cardiologist or more likely paedeotrician was in Liverpool 
or Newcastle and the condition required it then that is what happens. 
Same with helicopter evacuation to get there (some of which is done by a 
charity).

At present we have access to EU healthcare when in the EU but after 
Brexit that may well cease. If I lived nearer the South coast I would be 
tempted to hop over the channel for some conditions where I know the 
Belgian health system is better than ours.

No. It is a parallel private hospital system in the UK which provides 
the facilities up to and including full diagnostics and surgery for any 
surgeons who want to work privately for some of the time. It gives you a 
bit more flexibility to schedule operations for when you want them and a 
higher trim level single occupancy room.

The number of such cases is small enough that it really isn't worth the 
effort. But in the interests of reciprocity I think the UK should make 
all visiting Americans buy ridiculously over priced medical insurance.

I asked exactly that question of a fairly senior doctor when my mum was 
stuck in hospital and his answer was that she could stay for so long as 
she needed to be there and no suitable nursing care bed was available. 
The bean counter side of the system didn't like this and sent me a 
couple of stiff letters and I fried one particularly unfortunate social 
worker who really annoyed my with her lack of case knowledge - they are 
the people who are supposed to liasse hospital to care home/own home 
transfers for the frail and elderly.

There may be some rationing of insanely expensive new drugs that extend

There are a network of large conglomerates that cover several counties 
each. All major cities have a few big hospitals each but they are not in 
competition. Some have specialisations others are more general - you may 
have to travel upto 50 or 100 miles to the right one if your condition 
is rare or unusual (even further if it is ultra rare).
