Our 'Public' hospitals receive a large part of their funding through state & national governments. There are private hospitals. Private hospitals is where private health insurance comes in handy, if you wish to jump waiting queues for special kinds of operations or definitely get a private room.

Our health system is not easy to describe in a sentence or two, at least for me to do. lol

AFAIK the hospital system in USA is mostly privatised for profit?
