'''Single Payer''' refers to a [[health care]] system having only one payer of all health care expenses, typically a [[socialism|socialistic]] [[big government]] [[Welfare state]] - [[Nanny state]]. That payer would rely on [[tax]] revenues and perhaps some [[insurance]] premiums to fund its reimbursements and costs.
Currently the federal government accounts for 43% of all health care expenditures, and a series of recent mergers among health insurance companies leaves only three major insurers.<ref>http://www.deseretnews.com/article/865637201/Government-single-payer-health-coverage-may-be-nation7s-future.html?pg=all</ref> It appears that health care is approaching a single payer system, or something close to it.
[[Switzerland]], which has mandatory [[health insurance]], rejected a proposal to adopt a single payer system on March 11, 2007.<ref>http://www.businessinsurance.com/cgi-bin/news.pl?newsId=9723</ref> 71% of voters opposed it. Switzerland currently has 87 different private health plans.
At the first [[2016 presidential debate]], [[Donald Trump]] declared the following:<ref>https://www.cbsnews.com/news/transcript-of-the-2015-gop-debate-9-pm/</ref>
{{cquote|As far as single payer, it works in Canada. It works incredibly well in Scotland. It could have worked in a different age, which is the age you're talking about here.}}
To which [[Rand Paul]] responded:
{{cquote|the Republican Party's been fighting against a single-payer system ... for a decade. So I think you're on the wrong side of this if you're still arguing for a single-payer system.}}

* A single-payer health care system is one in which a single-entity—the government—collects almost all of the revenue for and pays almost all of the bills for the health care system. In most single-payer systems only a small percentage of health care expenses are paid for with private funds. Countries that have a single-payer system include [[Australia]], [[Canada]], [[Sweden]] and the [[United Kingdom]].<ref>[http://www.freemarketcure.com/singlepayermyths.php The Myths of Single-Payer Health Care] - [[David Hogberg]]</ref>
Single-payer is popular among the political [[left]] in the United States.
