US pays $9k per capita

2018-11-14 16:38:18 UTC  

into their healthcare budget

2018-11-14 16:38:39 UTC  

Its what happens when big pharma restricts drugs to only be bought from US firms :/

2018-11-14 16:38:49 UTC  

theres a lot more admin to work out who gets their healthcare bill taken care off

2018-11-14 16:38:59 UTC  

Free market that shit and import from Canada

2018-11-14 16:39:14 UTC

2018-11-14 16:39:17 UTC  

FYI Canada's HC is fucked

2018-11-14 16:39:18 UTC

2018-11-14 16:39:34 UTC

2018-11-14 16:39:44 UTC

2018-11-14 16:39:45 UTC  

when I walk into a doctors surgery... I basically tap my postcode and DOB into a touchscreen... thats literally all the forms you need to fill 😛

2018-11-14 16:39:56 UTC  

canada is very different from the UK

2018-11-14 16:39:57 UTC  

Yh lol its so blessed

2018-11-14 16:40:08 UTC  

Fuck all that premiums shit

2018-11-14 16:40:08 UTC  

it's neat when the government already has all your data

2018-11-14 16:40:09 UTC  

you cant get private insurance in CA

2018-11-14 16:40:16 UTC  

our nsa is working on that

2018-11-14 16:40:16 UTC  

Oh shit really?

2018-11-14 16:40:33 UTC  

I didn't know that bit at all lol, so its like a flat ban?

2018-11-14 16:40:34 UTC  

We have the same infrastructure issues as the 'states (distance, under serviced communities) and then a noncompetitive HC system that doesn't actually cover everything

2018-11-14 16:40:52 UTC  

make it hybrid

2018-11-14 16:40:59 UTC  

leave customers choice between public and private

2018-11-14 16:41:03 UTC  

i was quoted for private health insurance recently... £15 a month

2018-11-14 16:41:04 UTC  

Mhm but drug prices are cheaper in canada than the US no?

2018-11-14 16:41:07 UTC  

There's private insurance here- it's for everything not covered, including perscription medication

2018-11-14 16:41:09 UTC  

Yeah

2018-11-14 16:41:13 UTC  

Hybrid best system

2018-11-14 16:41:18 UTC  

Ohhh

2018-11-14 16:41:20 UTC  

styx proposed that system and thought he had invented something new, but that's basically how they even do it in Europe

2018-11-14 16:41:26 UTC  

So not the full package then

2018-11-14 16:41:32 UTC  

Nope

2018-11-14 16:41:38 UTC  

Damn thats wack

2018-11-14 16:41:40 UTC  

Dental and pills are two big ones

2018-11-14 16:42:06 UTC  

And our HC costs just kept ballooning

2018-11-14 16:42:07 UTC  

Ok nah thats dumb, private hc does better with dental on average

2018-11-14 16:42:19 UTC  

So dental is public?

2018-11-14 16:42:29 UTC  

No it's only private

2018-11-14 16:42:33 UTC  

most companies in the UK offer private... but many people dont even know...

2018-11-14 16:42:36 UTC  

Ohhh nvm

2018-11-14 16:42:48 UTC  

and even when they do they dont use it... because you have to pay a small excess

2018-11-14 16:42:51 UTC  

Yeah people just roll with NHS because its easier
