It's gotta be cheaper than the US system. Health insurance in this country is such an incredible scam. Here's the problem: it's making an awful lot of powerful people/entities awfully rich. Namely, doctors and insurance companies.
Problem is, few would trust our government to be in charge of disbursing and maintaining a general health fund. So I wonder out loud again...how come the whole thing can't be market driven? Why shouldn't a doctor charge what the market says the average sick person can afford and will pay? This would be considerably less than the 9800 dollars for 30 minutes my surgeon charged, that I can gaurantee. > Everyone. > > For instance in Canada, depending on the province, the money for > Medicare (which is the single payer health insurance) comes out of > general tax revenue, as in Manitoba, or as part of an annual premium, > as in Alberta.
