ur joookkkiingggg

I had to go to the ER and that shit cost me $500 for the lab tests alone

Always ask for an itemized bill

OOF I couldn’t imagine

Yeah in the UK you get told that xray screenings are too expensive

And sent home with some painkillers

In Canada

You have to pester them for months before being taken seriously and usually the damage is done by that time

you get the xray in about an hour

for free

yay

Canada is just cheaper in general

For me in Canada it would take me like.. 2 hours to get an xray

Why do you think people go there for insulin?

but that was a looooooong time ago

> you get the xray in about an hour
@Syenite
🇽 Doubt

@Syenite there's one case of corona in winnipeg

When I had appendicitus I got a CT in less than an hour

Damn

just one

And when I go to get blood work I rarely wait longer than ten minutes

Though our healthcare is pretty bare bones atm with all the tax cuts

Well appendecitis is life threatening, so that's understandable.

Here unless you were in a life threatening incident you're going to be waiting 2 hours minimum

The tax cuts haven't effected your healthcare

Yes, provincially they certainly have

I've literally see a person who accidentally sliced a finger off wait for an hour and a half

In Norway I think I only waited maybe 45min for an x ray it was super quick but.. then again I live in a very small community and major cases get sent to the city

I mean. Sometimes emergency gets crazy

No problem in here either.

But emergency should take priority

As in. If you go in with a booboo

Our healthcare system is pretty awful

You gonna be waiting

@insanelyvain
Yeah, I remember being taken to another part of the hospital *before* the ER when I broke my ankle. And then I had to wait until 2 AM to get a room.

A fully cut off finger should probably get attention though to reattach etc.

You're waiting in A&E for at least 4 hours before even being seen in triage
