"The public sector is the main source of health funding in all
OECD countries, except for the United States, Mexico and Greece. In
the United States, only 45.1% of health spending is funded by
government revenues, well below the average of 72.5% in OECD countries.
The public share of total health spending remains the lowest among OECD
countries, after Greece."

Nearly all Western nations except the USA have universal
healthcare and
pay for it mostly through taxes. When U.S. private healthcare costs
(as a percentage of GDP) are added to the U.S. total taxes, then the
U.S. total taxes plus healthcare costs exceeds the total tax GDP
percentage paid by many
nations. Total public and private U.S. healthcare costs (as a
percentage of GDP) are higher than all other nations, yet U.S.
healthcare
statistics are worse than most other Western nations due to the lack of
universal healthcare in the USA. For worldwide healthcare cost
comparisons,
