State

Universal healthcare guarantees coverage for everyone; socialized medicine means the government owns and runs the healthcare system; never synonyms in this course.

One nation's government funds insurance while care is delivered by private providers; another nation's government employs the doctors and owns the hospitals.

Watch for

A nation can have universal healthcare without socialized medicine, funding coverage while leaving delivery in private hands.
