The healthcare system of every developed country except the USA

You don't really need socialism for proper health care. Almost all of the countries you're referring to are solidly capitalist economies.
They are, but their health care systems are everywhere on the scale from textbook socialism to capitalism-with-lots-of-rules. The UK's NHS, for example, employs the doctors, paid out of general government revenue, and provides otherwise-free health care.
