Yep a lot complain here in OZ but we are significantly better than a lot of countries.
A few years back I got extremely sick.
Spent 72 hours in the ER transferred to another hospital in ambulance at no cost. 28 days in hospital with surgery, recovery and free medication. It cost me nothing, blessed
I'm an Australian and the way I understand it the American health system is basically for profit and the Australian health system is not for profit and that fact makes a big difference
The Australian system is partly for profit - that is why private health insurance exists.
@@ianmontgomery7534 Umm .No
In Australia road accidents are handled separately to general medical. Each State has a commission that administers accident medicals issues and it is funded by what we call Compulsory Third party insurance which you pay each year as part of your car registration.
Australia is a wealthy country, we can afford to invest in the health and welfare of our citizens to get them back into the workforce sooner than later - universal free healthcare pays for itself in that sense. If only USA was a wealthy country!
It is a wealthy country but they don't spend the money like we do
@@kingseb2252are you kidding , we spend more per capita on health , as a Australian who chooses not to work , I get $1000 every two weeks for as long as I choose not to work , I get a house from the gov. For $67 a week as long as I want , I get top level doctors for free, dental for free , hospitals for free, medication is total $7.50 no matter how much or what medication is, I get free mental health if need be , the doctors I get are the same doctors if I have $10 in the bank or 10 million ! In fact I'll give you a sample of real Gov. Health Care , about 5 years ago or so maybe ten a new cure for Hepatitis C came out , the treatment was a 90 day course at $1000 a day for a person , the Aussie government went to the drug company and said " how much for a bulk purchase for every Australian with Hep.C ?" I think it was 20 000 people ! The gov. Payed and gave it free to any Australian or Visa Holder , it was $90 000 per treatment and if you buy some chance used drugs or got a blood transfusion and got Hep.C again you got another $90 000 treatment again and again no limit , the result was Australia now has no recordable Hep. C in our community ! That's Health Care !
The required part is without in America you have no cover but without here your covered by Medicare no matter what.
It's just wild to think that people in the US get critically unwell, and they know it, and are forced into just dealing with it at home or trying to go to work (making others sick) because the visit to the hospital would bankrupt them and ruin them and their family financially.
I have been to the doctors hundreds of times, and the hospital half a dozen - and 95% of the time I have not paid a cent, and the other 5% I have bought some non-branded medication for ~$10 to $20.
The finances have genuinely never entered my head when considering going to the doctors' or hospital. How it should be. Paid through our taxes.
I wonder how many Americans get critically ill because they couldn't afford medical care at a time that would have prevented it from becoming critical.
Me: went to hospital in an ambulance, got two doses of morphine, 3 saline drips, stayed overnight in the emergency department, with a holter monitor (for your heart)….. $0 because hospital was bulk billed (any meds you have in hospital is covered, not ones you leave with), and my ambulance was covered at the time with a $76 annual fee.
Neal ,we are making you an honorary Australian!!! You rock !
I had a stroke on the way to work and spent a week in hospital with physical therapy. I then spent 2 weeks in hospital rehab with physical and occupational therapy all for zero dollars. Thank goodness for medicare
Broken femur,2 weeks hospital,aftercare physio,hydro therapy, medication for a week - free.Medication per month after heart attack $17.50.Went to Dr. after really bad pain neck/shoulders,ache in left arm.Went to DR,blood test,ECG free.Rang me at 7pm and told m to get to emergency -straight through and stent next day. Free!
80's was when I started. travelling to USA = you were encouraged to get FULL Medical Insurance & if not you needed to mortgage the home if you suddenly were ill. I recall a friend's son had a broken arm $5,000 in costs. All my trips - No Insurance = No Trip. I went with a few less dollars in my pocket because I paid for the insurance when I booked the trip just in case of cancellation.
Shame on the American government for treaty their people so badly.It really saddens me. I cannot believe it.
My medical story…..firstly, as I’m considered a ‘high income earner’ ( over $140,000 pa) I pay the extra Medicare levy, which is about $2,300 pa, for that outlay, my self, wife, four kids and (almost) ten grandkids are covered. Last year, my younger daughter had some complications with her pregnancy, she was hospitalised for two weeks before and two weeks after the c-section delivery of twins….the total cost to her was $0…….gotta love socialised healthcare
Our health services are so much better as they are patient focused instead of profit focused.
Hi Neal. You wanna check out the NHS in the UK. We pay tax on the NHS and that it .The UK is cheaper than anywhere else in the world. From UK 🇬🇧👍👍 b Safe take care where ever you are. PEACE ☮️🕊️🕊️ an old cockney gal.
I’ve got epilepsy so I have private health as well as Medicare. I was in hospital last week after hitting my head really bad. Scans etc. the whole lot is handled. My neurologist is free too.
Gotta love Australia.
I visited the emergency room at the Flinders Medical Center on Christmas day, here in Adelaide, in 2023 and it didn't cost me a cent. They even gave me a room for the night. The US is a nightmare.
Yeah 3485.
You are correct.
Well said.
Our services are more patient focused than $$ focused.
I had open heart surgery in 2007 before that had major dental surgery 6 months on antibiotics 10 days in hospital with medication then 2012 had shoulder surgery 2 days in hospital cost zero dollars and here in Victoria you can pay for a Ambulance subscription of $40 for singles or $80 family per year so if you need an Ambulance it then costs nothing in America it's all about the mighty dollar who cares if your dying your just a slab of meat not here and I'm glad I live here I would love to visit America but would never live there sorry
nice to see Katlyn making a good life for herself. she is a lovely lovely person I follow her flogs. btw. neal 22Feb here. 38c hot. in melb Sydney had thunder storm on Tuesday. a thunder made a hole ON the Sydney airport runway. remember a runway is made up of two metre of concrete. syd airport was closed. AUSTRALIA IS A COUNTRY OF EXTREMES. YOU HAVE A NICE DAY MATE
100% agree. Born and raised in Australia I always wondered why in movies they paid so much for things medically related, cos all my memories growing up when I was sick was we didn’t pay to see the doctor, we paid for our medicine but not to get diagnosed, I was in the children’s hospital for 8 months having surgeries 4-5 times a month and we didn’t pay a single cent for one and it always confused me, I get movies aren’t real but I still knew in the U.S you had to pay for everything. Now as an adult I understand and it’s crazy how lucky we are to have such a great Medicare system in place, only issue now is our government aren’t as appreciative as the public are, and our first responders, all our emergency workers aren’t getting treated fairly or paid fairly. They deserve so much more for everything they do. I went through some rough shit back then I now recognise a adult but as a child I didn’t feel or see how bad of a time I was going through and that was thanks to my family, the doctors and nurses that looked after me, my life was literally on the line but I didn’t recognise it because the people around me didn’t make me feel like it was, they made everything seem so normal and perfectly fine. I’ve never appreciated it so much until now, they do a crazy amazing job
Most but not all of the prescription drugs are subsidized but have to go through a process to reach that stage of being subsidized. It is not free as every one thinks, we have to pay for it through our taxes but hardly noticeable and if you have private health, you pay less towards the medicare system but can still benefit.
Katlyn is a lovely lady.She is correct about Australia. Great place 2 be.
Not perfect.
But a better place 2 be than most countries.
Ambo cover is $76 per year
$742? Holy crap!
In Australia if you want a "second opinion" bribe a Veteranarian. All doctors here have the same government paper and same script to tell you.
Please react to Virat Kohli interview with Graham Bensinger, the video has parts. Please react to it.🙏
It's worth leaving your country just for that alone....... AND we speak English ! !
plus one other thing ambulances are free too
not in all states here in south australia we ay about 60 a year!
Where are they free? I'm curious.
Tasmania is free
NSW has a call out fee plus mileage. Pensioners are free nationally
Not in Western Australia!
