So a country's health care system is better than another country's based on the sole indicator of the number of patients that seek health care in the one country while being from the other?
Do you know how quality comparisons work, like, at all? ._.
Yes and Do you?
If any Canadian that seeks any form of serious treatment and can afford to do so in the US does so then that is absolutely a tell tale sign of the quality of that country’s facilities and medical personnel. They sure aren’t coming to the US because of our “shining personality”.
The problem is too many Vets with nothing wrong with them scamming government benefits for free lifetime money, and they are also too cheap to buy their own healthcare.
This problem didn't exist when people who actually went to bloody wars and got injured in huge numbers lived.
Because they had morals.
Now its just keep submitting fake claims until one gets approved, then after that keep appealing for more disability money.
The system is over burdened, this shit needs to be looked at and cut out.
I dunno what your bias against military personnel is but the complaints you have is with the government. They agree to take care of these guys as soon as they sign on the dotted line. The entire blame for any “false claims” situation would be on the structure of those agreements that the government came up with.
What makes you think the private system is any better than this poor chaps VA? He is just speaking from bias, I'd wager most have more complaints than standing ovation for their health care situation.
For example, in my area of the first world USA even with paying massive premium and bills after the matrix of health care expense, the waits for basic shit like a hearing test for a toddler are 4-6 months.
If I needed specialized care, say work on my heart, my odds are best at something like Mayo Clinic St Marys. Guaranteed insurance denies that effort if that hypothetical occurs then some factory seconds will have to do it.
Sir, our system is shitty. Both expensive, low quality depending on jurisdiction, and long waits on basics.
I think it’s where you live. My son (hearing impaired) literally had to wait 3 days for a hearing test and a week for surgery on both ears. This is a fraction of what it takes in most countries with socialized medicine.
