Australia has a mixed system.
Theres some nuance to this but essentially the government covers most things but you might wait a long time, especially for anything that isnt actively killing you. You don't get to pick your doctor, you get the treatments that are govt approved and you get shuffled out the door just as fast as humanly possible.
Private health insurance means you can choose your specialist, you have more of a say in your treatments and if your specialist says "If you want to go home tomorrow you can, but I'd like you to stay in for 3 days ideally" and you can if you want.
Please fix. Even in Russia of all places I can choose specialist. Well, if there is specialist at all. Regional healthcare is kinda fucked.
That reminds me of an old joke. Life in Soviet Union is not different from USA. For Dollars, you get everything.
