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, we should allow both government and private healthcare providers to be involved to increase supply of medical/health-care services
@9KP6BNZ12mos12MO
I would support a single-payer system in healthcare only if it would not become as expensive as in the UK or Canada. I believe that everyone deserves the right to quality healthcare, be it public or private.
@9FMZP8H1yr1Y
Yes but only for Indian citizens
@9238ZFJ3yrs3Y
No, but regulate private insurance to make them non-profit and have a parallel government insurance program for those who are ineligible for private insurance
@8TC39WH4yrs4Y
Yes, this system guarantees healthcare for everyone, but allow people to use private insurance
@8RPP46D4yrs4Y
No, the healthcare should be free and fair for all ,and should be of high quality and care
@8R4SJR54yrs4Y
Both Private and Government involvement should be there
@8QM3R534yrs4Y
The tax money coming from the citizens should be rightly used to provide healthcare for all irrespective of gender, health issues, age and income
