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.

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.
@9FMZP8H7mos7MO
Yes but only for Indian citizens
@9238ZFJ2yrs2Y
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
@8QM3R533yrs3Y
The tax money coming from the citizens should be rightly used to provide healthcare for all irrespective of gender, health issues, age and income
@8PXDFDV3yrs3Y
Public option for poor people and low income families and Private option for middle class and rich

Regulation with respect to incomes
