US pays $9k per capita
into their healthcare budget
Its what happens when big pharma restricts drugs to only be bought from US firms :/
theres a lot more admin to work out who gets their healthcare bill taken care off
Free market that shit and import from Canada
right
FYI Canada's HC is fucked
get it from the leaf bros
leaf bros are good people
ey?
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 😛
canada is very different from the UK
Yh lol its so blessed
Fuck all that premiums shit
it's neat when the government already has all your data
you cant get private insurance in CA
our nsa is working on that
Oh shit really?
I didn't know that bit at all lol, so its like a flat ban?
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
leave customers choice between public and private
i was quoted for private health insurance recently... £15 a month
Mhm but drug prices are cheaper in canada than the US no?
There's private insurance here- it's for everything not covered, including perscription medication
Yeah
Hybrid best system
Ohhh
styx proposed that system and thought he had invented something new, but that's basically how they even do it in Europe
So not the full package then
Nope
Damn thats wack
Dental and pills are two big ones
And our HC costs just kept ballooning
Ok nah thats dumb, private hc does better with dental on average
So dental is public?
No it's only private
most companies in the UK offer private... but many people dont even know...
Ohhh nvm
and even when they do they dont use it... because you have to pay a small excess
Yeah people just roll with NHS because its easier
