Do you support a single-payer healthcare system?

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.

Yes but dental healthcare should be included

 @8GL7WXRanswered…6yrs6Y

It should be already included in our taxes to receive free healthcare

 @8DQM4VPanswered…6yrs6Y

Yes, this system guarantees healthcare for everyone and the quality of healthcare should be increased

 @9L4FNPWanswered…2yrs2Y

No, I beileve that we should have private hospital, if some people would like to use. This will most definitely release the pressure from public hospitals.

 @9DDF9MDanswered…3yrs3Y

free healthcare should stay

 @9FXKKY9answered…3yrs3Y

Yes i believe it should be part of the wage system but not at a high percentage and i believe that any foreigners coming to reside in our country should also pay lump sums with their visas like the UK.

 @9FT9T8Tanswered…3yrs3Y

No but the government could donate a portion every year to fund that helps people with subsidised appointments and medication especially for people living below the median. Also could be used for people requiring dentistry.

Holistic healthcare should be absolutely to everyone.
