A BIT OFF TOPIC I KNOW BUT OUR MEDICAL SYSTEM PROB COMPARED TO THE REST OF THE WORLD IS REALY DAMN GOOD, IF YOUR SICK YOURE FIXED ITS REALLY THAT SIMPLE , IF ITS NOT LIFE THREATENING YOU MAY HAVE TO WAIT A WHILE ON SURGERY,YOU CAN GO TO THE DOCTOR , MOST BULK BILL WHICH MEANS THEY CHARGE IT COMPLETELY TO THE GOVT, SOME YOU MAY HAVE TO PAY A SLIGHT DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE DOCS BILL AND THE GOVT REBATE ( ONLY A FEW DOLLARS USUALLY ), IF YOU TAKE OUT AMBULANCE SUBSCRIPTION ( COSTS AROUND 80 AUST DOLLARS ) A YEAR COVERS YOU AUST WIDE INC AIR AMBULANCE ETC ALL COSTS. AS I SAID ITS NOT A PERFECT SYSTEM BUT UNLIKE THE US SYSTEM I BELIEVE ,WE WILL GET TREATED STRAIGHT AWAY REGARDLESS WHETHER WE HAVE MONEY OR INSURANCE OR ANYTHING , SO LONG AS YOUR AUST YOU GET TREATED.I BELIEVE ITS A FAIR SYSTEM WHERE THE RICH PAY MORE , THE POOR PAY LITTLE , THE MIDDLE CLASS PAY MEDIUM.,EEVERYONE PAYS SO IN THE END ITS FAIR.
