In both nationalized healthcare systems and single-payer models, the government is responsible for financing healthcare services. In a nationalized system, the government may directly operate healthcare facilities and employ healthcare providers. In a single-payer system, the government collects taxes or premiums to fund healthcare, which is then provided by private or public healthcare providers.
