We were at a party a couple of years ago with a Canadian couple and they said it was a pretty good system overall but you just had to remember if you needed immediate attention to go to the ER because they could not put off treating you.
“..if you needed immediate attention to go to the ER because they could not put off treating you. ..”
Same w/the USA. However, my friend, who’s in the healthcare business, said that if you need a new hip replacement in Canada, they put you in a wheel chair instead. Maybe they just do that at an older age, but we give hip replacements to older folks, and that’s the age they usually need it.
Of course, their insurance helps some people, but it’s NOT as good as the USA. Now with Obamacare, we could face Canadian lack of quality, I fear.
