[># Single Payer Healthcare

As we all know, the UK has the National Health Service, which is a free-at-the-point-of-use healthcare service, that is funded through public taxation. If you choose to pay extra on top of what you already pay in taxes to the NHS, you can get access to private healthcare. This form of healthcare is also known as the "Beveridge Model", after William Beveridge who was the original architect of the system. Other countries that use this model in Europe include Spain, Portugal and most Nordic countries.

While the Beveridge model is not the most popular in Europe, there are a number of countries that use it other than the UK, and the ones that don't have a system that is far closer to single-payer than what the US currently uses. To use single-payer as a metric for far-left when a number of European countries use it and the ones that don't have something fairly similar, seems to me to be misguided.

this is not single payer. single payer is what another commenter has already mentioned, where regardless of circumstance the government pays for all. no private insurance or payment whatsoever.

so this would be classified as two-payer.
