Single-payer healthcare is a system where every citizen pays the government to provide core healthcare services for all residents. Under this system the government may provide the care themselves or pay a private healthcare provider to do so. In a single-payer system all residents receive healthcare regardless of age, income or health status. Countries with single-payer healthcare systems include the U.K., Canada, Taiwan, Israel, France, Belarus, Russia and Ukraine.

As with dentist care in the UK, most people should be required to pay for a part of their healthcare to make the NHS workable again.
@9NT8NM87mos7MO
Yes, but private healthcare should contribute a percentage of their profits (pre-bonuses) back into the public healthcare system in order to benefit the NHS.
@9ZM2JDD1mo1MO
All British Citizens should get the taxpayers money, but illegal immigrants should not get the taxpayers funds.
@9WMK3SC2mos2MO
Yes, but allow people to use private insurance, healthcare is guaranteed for everyone still, private comapnies can profit off of healthcare, but the government should not be involved in healthcare because they have some weird agenda. Unless if it is a proven good government.
@9RT5H6H5mos5MO
Yes, but private medical care must be much more competitive, and people should be given the option to opt out.
@9S7WCBR4mos4MO
Yes, but only for low-income households, higher earners should be financially responsible for their own healthcare
@9QS2DQZ6mos6MO
Allow people to use private insurance
Guarantee healthcare for everyone
Not get involved heavily in healthcare however
Private companies can profit off healthcare if it's not creating more patients, rather retaining healthy patients who want to improve more
@9QK8TBT6mos6MO
There should be a private and public option with tax deductions for those taking pressure off the public sector.
