European perspective incoming:
Every resident of Switzerland has to have obligatory health insurance. Therapy is part of the basic package that every insurance provider has to cover (for up to N sessions per year). The patient has to pay a cover of 10% of the cost on top.
This shifts the cost of therapy from $150/hr to $15/hr + basic health insurance premiums (<$500/mo). Note that this is general health insurance, so this will also cover physical health etc. (apart from dentistry for some reason).
- pova 7y agoI notice this trend of not covering dentistry through many countries. I think the issue is that a lot of dentistry work tends to be aesthetic and because of that it's hard to draw the lines on what should be covered.
