Small, poorer provinces with aging populations , like Nova Scotia, struggle with the financial burden. It's cheaper too. US health care cost amount to over 15% GDP. Canada's are less than 10% GDP. I can get an MRI tomorrow if I need to. How long will it take to get an MRI in Canada? I can go see my Dr's tomorrow if I need to. How long will it take to get an appointment and then how many months away will that appointment be in Canada? It is like the guys from the Soviet Union who defected to the US of A back in the 60's and 70's and found out that our stores, all across the country, really were full products. All you had to do was go in, get what you wanted, take it to the cashier, pay for it, and walk out the door with it. MRI... if you want to pay approx $700.00 ASAP.... if you wait for a 'no charge'..... could be a wait. If you're talking about a GP... depends on how busy and the nature of your emergency. I can usually get in for a minor problem in 3 days. Reminds me, I haven't seen a doctor (except for dentist) in a couple of years. I probably should let him know I'm still alive and drug free (prescription & otherwise). If he gave my spot to someone else, it might be hard to find a new doctor. Wow, sounds like some great medical care. Why are liberals so proud of Canadian medical care? -- ** Good Day! ** John H What are you blathering about? We have a choice here in some respects. An MRI... you can get one for free or pay for one. I suppose your veterans coverage pays for yours. |
