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.
No, but I would support it if it were a tiered system
No, government funded healthcare should be an alternative for people who cannot afford private health insurance
No, as people may not have enough money to do these things.
Sure but I think the government should be paying for it more.
The rich should pay more for the heath care because not everyone can pay for health care alone
i need to know more information
No, but decrease the price for private healthcare.
I’d like to see it handled on a state level.
Yes, unless they have low income.
I don't really know anything about this, I don't have enough information.
No. Maybe do a trial run in lower income areas, but other than that keep it private
It depends on if the prices for health care decrease or not. If it’s thousands of dollars for a visit then no, but if it’s going to be in the 0-300 range then yes.
Yes, but they need strict regulations around what is considered "core services"
I think that any healthcare for all decided by Congress should be one that the law makers should take on themselves.
No, but I also think that our healthcare system was problematic before Obamacare and more problematic afterward, and without a massive overhaul to streamline processes and improve competitive market based solutions, the only other workable plan might be a single payer system. So single payer is undesirable but likely inevitable and as such I am somewhat resigned to that possibility.
Only instantaneously life threatening things should be paid for by the government. Everything that is not immediately needed should fall to the individual.
No, I support a Australian system.
Yes, I believe everyone should receive healthcare but only if it is done in a way were overall prices in society aren't increased and the economic does not decrease
@9FLG33D2yrs
I support universal health care, but not single payer.
Yes but it shouldn’t be unaffordable to all
Overhaul healthcare system.
Yes, but it should not be too expensive.
The cost of healthcare should be lowered.
don't understand the question
Yes, but it should cover everyone in the U.S. not only residents.
I think people should have the option to chose this? I'm not too educated on this topic so I am kind of in between
I don't think healthcare should be paid for by the patient or their families. I think that healthcare should be paid for by taxes
Yes, but figure out a way to make it so the wait times are not ridiculously long. Everyone deserves healthcare no matter what, so it's very important to have this or something similar to this.
Nobody should be profiting from healthcare but the healthcare workers. A single-payer system allows one party to control the system for their benefit, but it would be far better than the privatized healthcare model we're subjected to now.
Yes, but we should put regulations in place to make sure people arnt abusing the system and hospitals arnt being flooded with non emergency things
more information is needed in order to answer this question
Strict Qualifications to limit participants.
It should be a basic minimum provider and system; private companies should still be able to compete.
I don really have an opioin
Yes and No. Without a single-payer healthcare system there would be no Medicare. No, because there are wealthy patients, whom if you take proper care of would donate money to these establishments.
Basic healthcare yes the more expensive no
I don't understand but I say no
If you can pay the tax for the healthcare, you should be able to receive it in an appropriate amount of time.
No, its nice that it guarantees healthcare for everyone, however, because it universal I imagine it wont be the highest quality so it may be better to keep up programs that focus on income brackets and account for peoples needs.
Only if it operated automatically via the blockchain
Yes, but lower costs based on income. But make sure the quality of healthcare is still good.
i think that because everyone pays for their own private insurance our medical advancements are better than any other country but we need to make this system more affordable because it is not fair game
Yes, but i would prefer a complete nationalization of hospitals, pharmacies and pharmaceutical production.
