In all these cases, there is one constant: the patients get treated, and treated well. That's not the issue. It operates for the good of the patients (whereas for example, the NHS often gets criticized ...)

It's the billing afterwards that's the issue.




The NHS is being systematically destroyed by the Tories who want this broken US system in the UK because it makes them money.

Aussie healthcare is the best I've seen (and I've seen a few). Basically free, with more speed or better care (or whatever) if you want to pay for it. Health insurance is like US$75 a month and not tied to employment.


> the patients get treated, and treated well

Absolutely anyone who’s ever dealt with healthcare system will tell you otherwise. From being denied necessary medical procedures because insurance doesn’t agree with it to subpar quality of care because how stretched the doctors and healthcare professionals are, US medical system is far from treating everyone well.
