Another thing, Huntard. I've been hearing one of the gripes about universal coverage like Canada and the UK is wait times.
There are some. It's not really that bad though. There are only so many doctors or OC's, wait times are inevitable. People should realise this before complaining. Also, of course, the whiners are heard far more often then the people who are satisfied with the system, which is the vast majority (I've heard figures of more then 85% fro the U.K., I think ours are similar, but I don't have any figures ready.) If I had to choose between our system and what you describe to me, I know what I'm gonna choose. If that makes me a liberal nazi communist, so be it.
Well, sorry to say, but good luck having an affordable plan that also has ANY type of specialist covered.
Like a brain surgeon? Covered, in full.
That's another kicker: what services are covered? Oh, you need physical therapy? Ooh, sorry, that's not covered on your plan. You have an ulcer, or you need to get your stomach checked for one? Sorry, not covered.
Damn. So, even
with ensurance, you can still run up one hell of a bill? Triple damn!
