List of Industrialized Countries

The following list of countries is often what is meant when “free-market countries” or “industrialized countries” is mentioned. The OECD (explained below) is an excellent source of statistical information about the 30 countries. OECD is based on countries with a market-oriented ideology. Twenty-seven are high-income countries. Among the 27 high-income countries in the OECD, all the other 26 countries have health care for everyone. Everybody In. Nobody Out. It is time to stop bureaucracy, start efficiency, and catch up to the rest of the world when it comes to being efficient in paying for health care.

The list of countries is the set of member countries of the OECD – Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, which provides statistical information for this set of countries.

There has been a world-wide expansion of the use of national health insurance that was largely completed in the mid-1970’s. The United States has not participated; the U.S. Congress and/or the U.S. President has rejected the idea over and over again, as seen at that web page. [My comment: prior to 2010, Americans never communicated in massive numbers that they wanted single-payerv, the best version of national health insurance. — Bob]

There are multiple ways of identifying “industrialized countries” or “developed countries” or “advanced economies.” One of those ways is to refer to OECD, an organization which gathers and reports information for the 30 countries.
