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, it would be more affordable and effective for Ireland to have a compulsory health insurance (Bismark) model like Germany, Austria or the Czech Republic

the government should fund the healthcare for everyone and there should be less privatisation for it

For certain health issues. I feel as if people would waste the hospitals time for a minor injury that does not require the aid of a hospital.
@8XSVGX73yrs3Y
Yes, but allow private insurance for luxury extras only rather than better, quicker healthcare.
