 | Canada's health care system is generally considered one of the world's best, placing in the top ten in most measures of quality. |
| Canada is seen as a country with a publicly funded health care system, with the various levels of government paying about 70% of health care costs. |
| Canada is unusual in that the government pays for almost 100% of hospital and physician care, but contributes very little in areas such as prescription drug costs and dental care. |
