    2:55 Why do Americans always make this excuse? According to this own video Spain has one of the best healthcare systems even though it has 8 times the population of Singapore. America then has 7 times the population of Spain and we're meant to believe that it suddenly isn't doable? Nonsense.

      3. Regarding the pandemic, more than half of the people infected with COVID19 are on the run from the authorities meaning they do NOT figure in official reports as infected (and even then you see koreans pulling their masks away from their mouth TO COUGH outside of the mask and then they put it back on)

    Having great health system is one thing, but even more important than that is to educate citizens how to take care of their health. Because hospitals are the last resort, once you need medical help you have already failed to take care of yourself. Doctors are "mending" health and not preventing health problems in the future.
    So I think that one great thing we should do is learn about how to take care of ourselves and have people in the healthcare system that can advise us on how to do that without tons of pills and expensive treatment.

      Yes, taking care of one's health is important, and doing things that put your health at risk (e.g. smoking) is just asking for trouble.
      But it's also worth keeping in mind that many ailments can occur regardless of how well you look after yourself, for example genetic disorders, cancer, and of course unforeseeable accidents. It's not always someone's fault they are sick, and no one should have to pay excessive amounts of money for something they have no control over.

    A problem with the rankings is, which data point you give more value. I have seen many rankings of healthcare systems and each time it was another country.
    I have seen my country on top, The Netherlands, but in another survey, it was France, one time it was Brittain, Taiwan, Singapore, etc. And most of those surveys look at the same data points, like cost, accessibility, healthcare outcomes, average life expectancy, etc. However, the differences in those surveys are, how much value you give each data point.
    The only country where all those surveys agree upon, the USA always somewhere on the bottom of those charts.....

    I lived in both Hong Kong and Singapore for a significant amount of time before. And i didnt notice the low cost of healthy until i live in Canada, another good health care country. Hong Kong and Singapore even provide low cost medical service to tourists or foreigners. If u got sick like say fever or broken elbow (touch wood), u can go to those walk in clinic or local hospital and they charge u very little. My friend from Belgium got into a car accident and required to stay in local hospital, he paid like $100 USD only. Not only do the cost is kept very affordable, the care and standard were very high too. Both countries were highly educated, just look at their universities' ranking on the global scale. I have to give them credit and recognition for providing health care to people. Their government really emphasize ethic rather than just all about money. Also, to be fair, these countries have like 5-7 millions people only, its a lot easier to manage. And their city (country for singapore) are only as big as a LA, so its a lot easier to manage

    • @keitoimon
      @keitoimon Před 5 lety

      Grid 88 because the prices aren't set . instead each hospital sets it's own prices and negotiates with lots and lots of individual ensurances. other places set the prices and there is more negotiating power when you're promising not only the 300 people living near the hospital that have your ensurancw but instead everyone that lives around the hospital. it's a bit like when you buy tons and tons of a product and then instead of buying it at the store price buy it from the factory itself, negotiate with it and and get cheaper prizes for buying more

      2. Korean doctors missdiagnose WAY too often (oh yes, they say sorry afterwards as if that fixed how incompetent they are)
      3. Regarding the pandemic, more than half of the people infected with COVID19 are on the run from the authorities meaning they do NOT figure in official reports as infected (and even then you see koreans pulling their masks away from their mouth TO COUGH outside of the mask and then they put it back on)

      Too many managers and being mismanaged by idiots is a big problem.
      The NHS is something of a mixed bag, depending on one's problem and location. Some of the speciality and specialist centres seem to be great. Gen Hospitals can be hit and miss, and General Practitioners appear pretty poor in the main.
      But it remains free at the point of contact/service.

And Americans just can't let go of the whole 'wait times' thing which is their favourite demon of single payer and mantra for success. It is an American artifact that you can have ZERO wait times, because 1. money talks. 2. For profit hospitals grow like mushrooms, tons of space and bored doctors. In single payer countries emergency medicine IS delivered. What is NOT is elective surgeries, they are prioritized and yes you will have to wait. Boo hoo. Just because Americans has forgotten what a queue is for - fairness. People are queued and resources are queued and illness is queued. (Yah that's right really sick people are served first.) Profit and shareholders built into your system guarantee you will NEVER have fair health care for all.

But even private clinics have a mixed fiscal regime in which you pay a middle way ticket, more expensive than NHCS but cheaper than going fully private. Last but not least, in most of the collective job contracts (trade, turism, services...) are integrate health insurances that allows you to benefit from private clinics spending a third of what usually it costs.

We realized this was not actually the case, with hospitals focusing more on more expensive, better quality care to serve richer people than providing better healthcare for all. We re-pivoted to more government intervention, where the benchmark for services is set by government options, forcing private healthcare providers to compete with this new standard. Yes, we have considerable government intervention, but in our view it is the minimum to make the system work for all.

    I m frm hk , most of the people here do not even have medical insurance, we just go to the govt. hospital pay hk$ 100 and thats all. Even if we have to get admitted and need tests to be done, its cheap. Worrying abt hospital bills isnt an issue here.

      socialist thinkers? Name me one "socialist thinkers" you're talking about. Cuz if you look at Singaporean political party, People's Action Party, it's the most dominated as well as the only ruling party in Singapore ever since they gained their independence. And their political ideology is centre-right, aka conservatism and ECONOMIC liberalism, which is FREE MARKET and PRIVATE OWNERSHIP, something that socialist hate.

    I never understand this argument that a system might not work for the US because its population in too large. If that's the case, just apply it to each state individually.

    Geographical size does not present a significant barrier to having a single payer healthcare system. If you can have a Federal government, unified military etc you can also meet healthcare needs within a large country.

      Per capita nordic citizens pay around $8000 in tax dollars on healthcare only. Quality isn't as good either. SInce everyone in health care wants to be paid good and equipment is expensive and taxed.
