bopsterjazz Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 It's so true! The US is suuuuuuper expensive if you get hurt. But Cedar Sini is prob. the most expensive, because celebrities go there. If you fell out of a window, you may go to the hospital, but you wouldn't get the lights on the ambulance (which is reserved for people who have a higher chance for living) It's scary to think how unprotected we are. . . But he's an amazing brother. Just another reason to love the crap out of him! XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bopsterjazz Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 are you serious? not everyone gets lights when going by ambulance? Yep. It's scary. It all depends about how serious your accident is. You don't get them if you break a bone either, unless you're losing blood too fast. At least, it's like that in this state, I don't know about the whole country.

And here, in Indonesia, you're better drive on your own car than wait for ambulance. They will come soooo late. And the real problem is in the hospital, I mean the system. You never get the doctor until you sign the papers, pay some money as guarantee, bla bla bla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

francoise Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Honestly, we can't complain in France about our health system if we compare to the stories I've read here. We have a public health coverage applicable to all legal residents and based on the principle of solidarity. Until recently, about 70% of our health expenditures were first paid directly by the patients who get the money back after few weeks and the other part is paid by private health insurance companies (except at the hospital where you don't have to give the advance) But governments have reduced the degree of reimbursement and more and more individuals need to get a complementary insurance supposed to cover all or part of the costs not reimbursed by the public health system depending on how much you pay (between 50 and 100 euros per month) A recent study has pointed out that 1 French person in 4 does not treat himself anymore, for lack of money to pay the advance of medical expenses or/and the costs not reimbursed by the public health system. Those who renounce heal are the unemployed but also workers with very low wages or women, often alone to raise their children First in European ranking of health systems in 2006, France has dropped to 7th place. Mika is right when he says that health is really a sector at risk and France also has a lot to defend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nico_collard Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 I am so thankful to live here in the UK as I have a genetic condition called Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (also known as Epiloia) and I've had it all my life. My medication has always been free of charge, as I need it constantly, and all of my trips to the doctors, or hospital and the various blood tests and Scans have been free too, because I live in the UK.It must be a nightmare for anyone who has a long-term condition, or who's child has a long term condition, like Diabetis or Epilepsy, or something else that needs constant medication and medical care, when they live in somewhere like the USA! They probably have no money left at all! It's good that you get all your medical expenses covered. I now have epilepsy after having two strokes (stupid crappy doctors at the stupid hospital ) and I have to pay for medication, blood tests and specialist doctors. I've forked out around $400 for blood tests, medication and doctor's appointments sinc January, which isn't too bad. With the exception of the blood tests for my INR and seeing my GP, I've had to fork out a lot of money for tests, scans, doctors appointments, etc. Not fun. Luckily for me I can claim some of that money back (not meds though) through Medicare, and if I go into hospital I can be admitted as a public patient and it doesn't cost anything (though there is a fairly long waiting list). Only crap thing is I can't get full health insureance because I have a pre-existing condition, so I don't get to choose doctors and can't claim my treatment back on insurance. Must admit, Australia's health system is pretty good compared to some other countries... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
