List of Industrialized Countries
There are 30 free-market industrialized countries.
Most of the countries have health care for all via national health insurance.
The United States does not.
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 30 countries in the OECD, most of them have some form of “health care for all”. Everybody In. Nobody Out. It is time for the U.S. 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.
Further reading:
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. Prior to 2010 Americans never communicated in massive numbers that they want improved Medicare for All in order to establish what the politicians’ call the “political will” for establishing it.
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.
