I disagree- socialized care is like insurance. The incentive is to pay out as little as possible. This is true whether it's a government health care program or actual health insurance.
An actual "market" system encourages consumption and competes on price and quality.
Health insurance (public or private) makes sense for catastrophic events (major illnesses) but for regular ongoing things like GP visits and common prescriptions, it's just a middleman that drives up prices and discourages prevention and primary healthcare.
