They list their source as 2017 OECD data. OECD seems to define this as:
"Health spending is the final consumption of health care goods and services including personal health care and collective services."
Their charts are also drawn in a standard and more understandable way.[0]

Hurtful, but okay, I do hope you realize it's the rampant monopolization of health care that is the problem in this country. Yours solved it by simply creating a single publicly held monopoly.
It's not as if either system is perfect and doesn't create it's own share and particular style of inhumane healthcare outcomes. Prescription label prices are noticeably different but are they meaningfully different where outcomes are concerned?
