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.

Deleted6mos
No, I prefer a standard Medicare for All
@97Z9T2T6mos
No, a universal multi-payer health care system is preferable
@9C569RJ1wk
Yes, if that one person is willingly to pay for the better of humanity.
No, implement a state-level decentralized system mixed with private companies. Low income individuals should have free healthcare while those with higher wages should have their healthcare provided through their companies or indirectly through paying taxes.
@9C8ZQ4P17hrs
No, implement a free healthcare system
@9C8WFH41 day
No, employers should be required to provide and fully fund health insurance including dental, travel, and vision for their employees.
@9C8T2ML1 day
America should have take inspiration from West European countries for healthcare
@9C7XM7N4 days

Yes but only pay for people with life threatening diseases or emergencies and drugs to treat it and people with pre existing conditions
@9C5RNDZ1wk
Health Care should be optional and not required.

Yes but only to pay for people who need life procedures or life saving drugs or people with pre existing conditions
@9C5PRQH1wk
No, use a national healthcare system similar to Canada's.
@9C5BW9K1wk
Yes but only provide essential life-sustaining/saving medical care. cosmetic surgery/medical care will need to be self-funded
@9BXYNNN3wks
I think that the government should regulate the cost of healthcare, not pay for it. If it wasn't so expensive, this wouldn't even be an issue.
@9BXVVF63wks
In theory yes but I don't think the US is at the stage where we can move to that system just yet
@9BXNX2H3wks
No, I advocate for market-based reforms that promote affordability, competition, and patient choice
health sector should be nationalized
Yes, healthcare is a right, and the fact that the United States has yet to implement such a system when every other advanced nation has done so is a disgrace
Yes, but it should be in competition with private insurance in order to drive down costs
@9BN65891mo
Governement should watch how much their charging
@9BMFFWX1mo
Not exactly. Everyone should have access to health care but some peoples situations are more severe than others and if everyone gets the same level of care it could be disastrous,
@9BMD3WS1mo
Yes, but there should be privately owned healthcare providers as well
No, but insurance shouldn't be so high costing.
@9BLV39M1mo
Yes, but the government isn’t using the people’s money for healthcare as efficiently as they should.
@9BLDZQL1mo
Yes, I like the idea of everyone at least trying to help out if and when they can.
No, but adopt private-healthcare vouchers for low income individuals
No, but adopt vouchers for low income individuals
@9BKH6321mo
I think it should be available, but there should be a public health care for people who can't afford private health care.
@9BKBVCP1mo
No, I think that universal healthcare is a better option.
@9BJCXYY1mo
Free healthcare is something a lot of Americans want. This is of course the ideal, however the way we visit the doctor and go to the hospital would change quite a bit.
