Single pay universal health care.   
   The Canadian system is far from   
   perfect - and gets screwed over in a big way every time a conservative   
   government is elected - but it beats the hell out of the best of the   
   American system.   
   
   
           
   
           
   
   Much has been written about the different health care systems from   
   around the world. The US consistently rates at or near the most   
   expensive but with average or below average outcomes. It's hard to   
   believe that this is the best that we can do.   
   
   
         
   
         
   
   GIGO.  People's health is poorer due to foregoing primary care   
   because of its expense.  Hospital outcomes are worse because   
   people cannot afford followup care.   
      
   Three years ago I fell down the basement stairs.  I was able   
   to afford the $45 co-pay for physical therapy, occupational   
   therapy, and speech therapy.  The last two were for assessment;   
   PT actually had some work to do.  Lots of people wouldn't have   
   insurance coverage for those things, nor be able to afford to   
   pay out of pocket.   
      
   
   
       
   
       
While you're there, have Corewell Health take a look at your TDS.
