I suppose 14% of Canadians could provide - 100s of examples, but...

Posted: Jun 16th, 2019 - 8:33 am In Reply to: Hundreds. Just do some research - sm

86% of Canadians oppose privatization of healthcare.

Meanwhile, Canada’s government just released a report titled “Healthy Canadians — A Federal Report on Comparable Health Indicators 2008.” Its findings almost identically mirror the CHC polling results. In that report, a leading indicator points to the fact that “Most Canadians (85.2 percent) aged 15 years and older reported being ‘very satisfied’ or ‘somewhat satisfied’ with the way overall health care services were provided, unchanged from 2005.”


To be fair? Or thorough...this...
Canada’s single-payer healthcare system forced over 1 million patients to wait for necessary medical treatments last year. That’s an all-time record.

(BTW, 1 million is just 2.6% of Canadian population)

My reaction, since I sit in a room and listen to 3 girls work precerts is that we are not giving the care prescribed or delaying treatment all the time...OR WORSE, flat denial from insurance.

In 2015, approximately 6% of persons of all ages (20.1 million) in the United States delayed medical care during the preceding year because of worry about the cost, and 4.5% (14.2 million) did not receive needed medical care because they could not afford it. Persons living in the Northeast were significantly less likely than persons living in the Midwest, South, or West to delay or not receive needed medical care. Persons living in the South were significantly more likely to not receive needed medical care than those in the Northeast, Midwest, or West.
