Private or Public Healthcare?

Postby Great Britain and Belgium » Thu Nov 13, 2014 2:48 pm

Does your nation have a publicly funded health service or private insurance?

In Great Britain and Belgium we have the National Health Service (NHS) that is publicly funded healthcare for every citizen with an NHS Card. NHS cards are obtained for free and automatically if a person is born in the nation. If someone that was not born here wants an NHS Card then a fee of £100 is paid and an agreement is signed. The NHS was founded in 1948 to provide suitable healthcare to all citizens no matter what class they are.
It is funded mainly through central taxation and the services provided are free at the point of use.
Population: 79,990,013 (Census 2014)

Alruniea has a single-payer universal healthcare system, and while private healthcare is available, it is rarely used by anyone.

Ayermani's healthcare is fully public and private practice is not allowed.
It is geared towards helping the low and middle-income group,where services and medicines are 95% (100% for those living under the poverty line of Ayermani Dollars AD$900 (US$300) a month,which is around 2.73% of the population) subsidised by the Government.
For the high-income group who seek heathcare services in Ayermani,they will have to fork out the full amount charged by Government,or alternatively they can seek healthcare services outside of the country.

NOTE:
Ayermani is a Modern Tech/Modern Era nation.

----- BEGIN TRANSMISSION -----
Neither. The Smooze does not need "healthcare"; mechanical failures in the
individual units are irrelevant in comparison to the ability to recreate those
failed units on-the-fly from the organic matter we consume.

Since we have no need for fragile, organic life, such lifeforms are simply
recycled, regardless of their health. Their strength - or lack thereof - has no
bearing on their value as organic matter fit for consumption by and assimilation
into the Smooze.

Free public healthcare for all essential and state approved procedures. For luxury cosmetic procedures one normally has to go private.
