The countries you listed are all dominated by public health care systems. The NHS in the UK is entirely public (insurance and providers). The other countries have public insurance that covers everyone, and a mix of public and private hospitals. It's a bit complicated in Germany and Switzerland, where there are multiple semi-public insurers, but those insurers are so heavily regulated they're basically public entities (price, coverage and payments to providers are all fixed by government).
