I've heard Sweden has great health care unfortunatately they are taxed 40% of income. Some a bit lower. A lot of the docs here have opted out of all insurance and are cash only practices now. My neighbors pdoc joined with some of the better ones. It's about $150 a half hour. Only those with money can pay. She now cut a deal with him to just get RX's and see every six months at $60 per visit. One hospital the biggest here was placing liens on anyone who couldn't pay in full their bill. They did get "slapped" and have to stop this. Right now according to the docs I see when out here the hospitals are trying to figure out how to care for all the seniors and are going to close the only psych inpatient hospital here. Not good at all. One doc another neighbor will take no patient irreguardless of insurance over the age of 50 as a new patient. So yes your plan sounds good. If only. Oh I see my dermatologist today that so far has accepted my medicaire & United Healthcare. I will ask him what's his plans are and what's he's heard from other docs also. Phillipa
