Compared to dying because treatment a private health insurer pays for would simply be denied, as other payers are prohibited.
Why would you want to make medicare supplemental coverage illegal, or forced to be completely separate, which is a characteristic of single-payer health care (as opposed to multiple payer universal health care coverage)?
- baddox 8y agoAFAIK the UK has optional supplemental health care, and Canada has optional supplemental plans for things not covered by the public plan.
- qyv 8y agoThat is not how public healthcare works in Canada at all.
- pjc50 8y agoSupplementary coverage is perfectly legal in the UK, I don't know why people think it isn't. Maybe there's a disinformation campaign.
