Hi there,
Behind on email, but resurfacing for a bit to see if we can perhaps
accomplish in a few posts what we went through in a semester class on
healthcare
delivery. For quite a few of us, the Aussie system was a favorite/great
compromise. The systems for many countries are often "lumped" together in a
general
way, but some of the nuances are lost to sound bytes.
To start the discussion off and overly generalize (but I know I can count on
everyone to keep me straight), the Aussie system has a fundamental level of
care for everyone, and a spoke/wheel/catchment area philosophy for special
tests (such as MRIs). Plans can be "upgraded" by paying a supplement. I
don't
recall the medication plan specifically, but do recall vision, non generics,
dental could all be upgraded.
back to catching up,
Dee
(yup, still posting from evil AOL formatting and hoping for the best)
