The system in the UK is typically known as a command based system. The government regulates budgets and prices of most of the health care system.

Answer:

Command based.

Step-by-step explanation:

A market-based system operates by voluntary exchange in a free market economy, not controlled by an authority.

A command-based system is planned by the government to attain its societal goals.

The United Kingdom health care system is delegated to the sovereign states, each one has its own system of publicly funded healthcare together with a smaller private sector and voluntary provision.

I hope this answer helps you.
