No, this is a common myth. See: "Bush is privatizing social security" for the same problem. If the government administers the work, it doesn't become privatized, it becomes contracted.
To put it another way, the government doesn't construct streets and bridges anymore. They contract the work out to private contracting organizations to do it on the government dime.
