They're correct, but it's misleading. The US spends vastly more per capita on medical costs specifically because we don't have universal healthcare.    
    
But, even with universal healthcare, government spending on health would still exceed military budgets. It'd go down significantly per capita, but total spend would skyrocket.

I'm not talking about total health spending, I'm talking about government spending on Medicare and Medicaid, it's almost double what we spend on the military.
