Oh jinny I'm sure with any thing there is room for improvement.
but-- jeez-- what goes on here is unthinkable in most other developed countries......
Like sick people taken out of their hospital beds and given a taxi ride to the nearest homeless shelter-- because their insurance had max-ed out. How about a man having to decide which finger to have sewn back on because he can only afford to pay for one. Not to mention all the denials for insurance in the first place...... it's just awful.

If my husband does go on his own for work..... I will be without health care at all....... I'd rather be on a waiting list than not have help at all..........

And yes, our hospitals are filthy too-- they say if you aren't life threatened to not go-- that way you won't be sicker when you come out.(I have a sister that is a nurse at a hospital)

Not trying to discount you at all....
I'm just upset that some of us here(In US) have NO option at all. I'm sure your system is not perfect but from what I've read and seen they do care about the patient-- more than the dollar sign.

thanks for your input-- It's always appreciated.
