I have been thinking of health care lately and keep hearing about how horrible "US style health care" is. I'm wondering how much is Canadian propaganda and how much is true. I don't trust the news, they will slant any story to fit their agenda so I thought I would just ask some Americans. Here in Canada we pay for (or get health insurance for) dental, vision, chiropractor, massage therapy, and prescription drugs. These plans pay a percentage of the cost - ours it depends what it is anywhere from 80 - 100% of the bill is covered. Orthomolecular doctors and naturopaths are generally not covered under any purchased health insurance plans and not covered by government either. Doctor visits and hospital stays are generally covered by the govt. There are a few exceptions but we won't go there.
How does your health insurance work? What do you pay for insurance? How much of your total bills does it cover? Will hospitals admit you if you do not have insurance?
