[QUOTE="klein, post: 889248, member: 23950"] Some provinces have actually made some deals with US cities or states. Vancouver practised that about 2 or 3 years ago, because they had an overload of some type of sugery (maybe hip),,, but then nobody went to Seattle, they rather waited. But, I do think some Ontario commuties do have a temporary US program in place. And I do say temporary, because it does cost the province double the money they would pay at home. So, they just need to put up with it until the facilties are built or in place. Other provinces have exchanges with other canadian provinces, too. The former liberal government did that to us (due to cutbacks and balancing the budget). Provinces used to get 80% of healthcare costs paid by the feds, that shrunk to 50%. Now, slowly we are getting a bigger share back from the feds. - Comming all back into place :) [/QUOTE]
