Canada does not have a single national health insurance program, but rather a publicly funded universal healthcare system operated across individual provinces and territories, commonly known as Medicare. Essential physician and emergency hospital services are publicly funded through taxation and provided free at the point of service for eligible residents, though prescription drugs, dental care, and optometry typically require private insurance or out-of-pocket payments.
