Here you have the insurance company deciding if you get care or not, and it costs much more than single payer. BTW, you don't wait long for critical treatment in those countries. It's a favorite talking point for those who prefer the healthcare we currently have.No. You get slow mediocre care --- and only if the gov't approves it. You just don't know any better because you have never had free market care to compare it to...
That isn't true either. Insurance companies don't decide --- you decide what coverage you want and then PURCHASE it from the insurance company...
As for critical treatment --- true --- but who decides what "critical treatment" is? The patient? (that's how it works with our health care) --- The gov't decides what qualifies for "critical treatment" in commie-care systems!
