[QUOTE="klein, post: 569740, member: 23950"] Both systems have thier goods and bads, no doubt. Thats why the contraversy. Just, you pay the most in the world for your services. Even a bottle of Tylenlol is almost half the price here. (and no, not because of the currrency exchange - we're almost at par again). And will move beyond that soon, again. We need to get extra travel insurance when we travel to the states, why ? Because if we break a leg there, the canadian system will only pay the amount it would have costed here. And, thats about half the amount (here $2500, there $5000), so I would still be out $2500. Obama is looking at why, your system is soo expensive, and wants to make changes to it. Maybe , it's simple things, like clinic-bulidings charging lots because they own them (just for the building) ? Or that most of your equiptment is bought on credit (MRI's catscans, etc) and it's more expensive, therefor. Some are probably just leased or rented. Same as the buildings. The goverment on the other hand, can buy those things in cash, and it's paid for, reducing costs. I think Obama sees that. But, thats just a therory of mine. I watch Jude Judy now and then... huge amount of cases going to court becaUSE of medical expenses that occured during a fight. Your probably right, no one gets refused for treatment, but you also need to add, that they'll get billed for it ! We don't have those cases here, unless your seeking pain and suffering, but medical costs are paid for. Wow, just as I'm watching this, our healthcare was just on the news. Globaltv.com 91% of canadians are satisfied with our system. But, yes, this topic shouldn't be much of a concerne for me, it's your country. I onkly started this, because some thought we were all dying up here, waiting for treatment, which isn't true. Trust me, the really sick, are put right into treatment, and scanning, etc. For others, that just go in for a routine check-up, like myself... yes, we wait. We will wait for that MRI or catscan, and stuff like that. It's no biggie, since we're not really sick in the first place. [/QUOTE]
