Well you see Ruth, it should work well, because it means that no-one is ever turned away from medical care, whether they have money or not. Years ago we had a wonderful health system until the managers got in and then it all went wrong. It used to be a patient orientated system but now it has to pay for itself and all the administrative lot. Patients are now somewhat of a nuisance, or so it feels like. We still have marvelous hospital staff and doctors and have access to things like MRI and everything for nothing at all It all comes out of indirect taxes (i.e. Petrol, cigarettes etc.,) but it definitely depends on where you live in the country, as to the level of care you get.

I certainly Sympathize with you about your system of health care. Unless we in the United States are careful we will go the same way. Presntly I have Medicare Which pays well for what it approves. I pay part, but it comes out of my Social security check so I don't miss it. Do need to carry supplementary Insurance which I have in connection with my teaching position . I have to Pay 200 a month for this and 500 dollars annually as a deductible. -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
