I'm not sure if I'm misreading the chart, but Health sits just above National Defence, with $796.8 B (12%) of expense, not $1.5T.
Anyway it only makes it more absurd; that the US as a nation manages to be the first military world power using less money than they spend to have a broken healthcare system that ruins people's lives.

It looks like Medicare spending was also included to arrive at $1.5T. A portion of "veteran's benefits" should probably also be included for the VA medical system.
