Hello, Canadians of Lemmy! Down in the USA there is a lot of conflicting information regarding the efficacy of y’alls healthcare systems. Without revealing my personal bias, I was hoping for some anecdotes or summaries from those whom actually live there.
Exactly. If I don’t feel like I’m dying that day I can wait a few hours. The people in critical condition get seen right away. And if it turns out it was nothing I’m only out some time and maybe a sick day.
You forgot paid sick day. I’ve been listening to a US family doctor doing a podcast. She had to take unpaid leave and vacation to give birth. Here I took 5 weeks paid leave and I’m not the one giving birth.
Sadly I assumed that was implied.
