Almost any time someone names a system they feel works really well, it's 2 tier
youre probably looking at the worst healthcare system eg canada and thinking, hey thats what government run healthcare look like
You could just masturbate into printer cartridges to save money on toner

Again, every time someone has named a "good" government healthcare system it's been a 2 tier system, not solely single payer
in terms of wait time, efficiency, timeliness of care, speed of recovery.. the UK is number 1 in all of these
Sometimes solo is the way to go
Like fallout
>the government that denies people other healthcare options
US is 11th
Wait is Terry Davis a pedophile π€π€
>the healthcare system everyone is panicking over
which government are you talking about?
You're in Canada, Beemann? What do you dislike about the system there?
cos many people here have private insurance from the company they work for
not that they use it
I'm talking about the UK government
cos if you use it you have to pay the excess
>Canada healthcare
Time based system?
Just an international perspective. There are many ways to achieve universal health care. The most extreme is the total nationalization of the health service, as seen i Great Britain with the NHS. I think the βbernieβ way to choose the nordic models is a poor fit for the US, we have different way to organize the public sector. My personal opinion, the USA can cheapest and most effective do this by be inspired by the Schweiz model. (I am a native nordic)
Yeah because that's good
People who use healthcare less over a period of time will get cuts if the need the help
And the issue with the system in Canada is that it's underfunded and overburdened
Most hospitals are at or over capacity
@Beemann you have private insurance in the UK... so... youre wrong... π
I dislike the Canadian healthcare system, it is too ineffective
Doesn't stop the government from denying people options
See: Alfie Evans
Wasnβt that an ethics thing?
oh yeah.. you mean the kid that the american docs said we can definitly help... then came over and said, no we would never have been able to help
I think it was somewhere else
So wait times are an issue?
But England was like βfuck dat shit RULE BRITTANIA OUR HEALTHCARE IS THE BEST! LET THE CHILD DIE TO PROVE A POINT!β
on average the wait times in the UK are 30% less than the US
the child was already brain dead
US is a larger area and hospitals are pretty far from each other
what does that have to do with wait times?
Yeah, I haven't really heard any complaints from people in the UK.
Ehh
wait times means your already at the hospital... in a waiting room
