    Coming from the UK I found the Danish Health care system utterly remarkable. It is not perfect (no one will give you advice as to which consultants are 'better'!) but it is indeed remarkably seamless, and the professionals are indeed 'professional'. I deeply appreciate the system, and I irritate my friends and family at home at the standard of general care, but also the wonderful 'nagging' by my doctor's surgery at my own approach to taking care of myself. The system is not only aimed at 'curing', but also very focused on 'prevention', and that seems to be a very key part of the way the system is implemented. Bravo Denmark!

      I'm curious in what ways you've find our system more focused on prevention. Personally I've always wanted proactive treatments/health advice rather than symptomatic "cures", but I've often been met with "we support that principle but we are not prepared/able to provide you anything".

    I am a 64 year old retired Scotsman living in Denmark with my Danish wife and who is starting to need maintenance and repair on my well used aging body. I have lived full time in Denmark for the past 4 years. My experience of the Danish Health system is that it is simply outstanding. It is populated by caring, professional , helpful, genuinely nice staff and the standard of public care is among the best in the world. I have nothing but respect and admiration for everyone involved. Especially for those that mimic my Scottish accent.🤣. The administration of the system is second to none and seamless and mostly free at the point of delivery. Well done Denmark.

    Im originally from the Philippines but i've been living in Denmark for almost 37 yrs. This is my home. I had a lot of experience living in this country. I live in Kolding, ( south east of Jylland). The first 3 yrs of living in DK was a challenge. But when i learned the language and their culture, it made me realize this is my home. Ofcourse, it wasn't perfect. It was hard learning the language and their sense of humor. And yes, the healthcare here is totally free and i think its easier with the digital healthcare. So i dont mind paying high taxes. By the way, i like your videos and i watch them sometimes.😍

    as a dane, I am not only grateful, but also in awe about the quality of healthcare. As a clutz, I sadly visit the ER sort of regularly, and there is no wait time, the doctors and nurses are competent, friendly and care. When I was a kid I remember endless hours of wait time in the ER, but I must say, over the years, the danish health care system improved greatly.
    My last visit was last year, I accidentally punched my own eye badly, trying to pull my coat out of my bag (idiot). It took about 30 minutes in the ER, 3 minutes at the pharmacy and I was done. *The eye however took 2 weeks to heal* (again, I am an idiot)

    • @lemenyh
      @lemenyh Před 3 lety +2

      I think a part of the reason why the wait time in the ER has gone down is due to having to call either your own doctor or the emergency doctor service (depending on time and day) and they will refer you to the ER or see you themselves.
      I remember one time I had to go in with my son, and they said on the phone that there was a bit of wait time so no need to hurry.
      Of course, if it's more severe or life threatening, you call 1-1-2 to get an ambulance

    I'm glad to hear you guys have had good experiences with the healthcare in Denmark 'cuz that's where i work my rear-end off every day :)
    I was wondering if you'd maybe consider visiting a couple of franchises of American businesses like McDonalds, KFC, or Domino's, to see if you stumble over some obvious differences from how you've experienced their franchises in the USA - Of course the worker wages are quite different, but as a customer is that something that's at all noticeable?
    How does the hygiene compare, the food quality, and the service in general do they meet/exceed expectations?
    It's always a pleasure to watch your videos, I think they teach us Danes a thing or two about things we're normally not perceptive of, because we just sort of grew up with 'everything' in place but ready for improvements wherever they can be applied, and I hope you'll continue making videos for a long time to come, with great joy for yourselves and many others! :]

    Just a heads up, the digital nature of Denmark is actually quite new.
    Almost all of my journals from when I was younger is gone, because the doctor I had forgot to transfer to physical papers to my new doctor when I moved. And when asked for them he could no longer locate them.
    That said since 2007 I think you have been able to watch all your doctors journals online. If the doctor you had at the time actually input the information into the system.
    I don't have a single journal from 2001 to 2008 due to this fact.

    I have a suggestion for a try it on tuesday:
    Kongen af danmark.
    It comes in two forms: A hard candy, and an alcoholic cocktail.
    The combination of anis and red berries is very interesting.
    The candy is pretty easy to find, and for the cocktail, you will have to find either pernod(french), sambuco(italian) or ouzo(italian). And of course hindbærbrus (rasberry soda)
    While anis is a licorice taste, it is a sweeter version, so it could be a gateway drug to actual licorice ;-)
    While the ingredients are not danish, the name, and i guess the colour is.
    Legend has it that king Christian the 5th, had some health issues, and his doctor prescribed anisoil to help him.
    But pure anisoil has a very very strong taste, so the doctor had to find some way to make it more palatable.
    The solution was to mix it with lots of sugar and colour it with beetroot juice, and the hard candy was born.

Things like overdosing on opioids for example, which you might have heard on the news in recent years. Blaming just our diet and obesity rates would imply that other countries with similar obesity rates and diets would have decreases in life expectancy too, but we're not seeing that.

      @@Jeffur2 i find that hard to believe. I am also curious about the details of these stories and the people involved. It Sounds like they survived. So isnt the system working? However, “talked to a lot of people,” sounds very anecdotal. Therefore, i too will resort to such criteria. I have never heard of anyone in the US refusing to take an ambulance because of cost. If you thought you were dying, you wouldnt care how much it costs, you would hop on. If they are that financially strained or do not have healthcare, why? If they have an employer, they should have some form of healthcare most of which deal with emergency situations. If they do not work they have medicare which covers 80% of this hospital trip if not more in some situations. On top of that, i live in denmark now. I know for a fact they turn people down from ambulance trips. They are very strict on who qualifies for the ambulance. The US does not discriminate who taxis to the hospital. If you are not bleeding out or losing consciousness, they will ask you questions and deem if your condition is serious enough. They simply do not have the resources. I find this highly ironic. I was not merely discussing carbs, i was discussing the complications of a high carb diet, being overweight is only one symptom. That said, State to state, many have lower obesity rates than the countries of europe. These countries are seeing increasing death rates despite you saying theyre not. Similarly, there are countries with higher rates of cancer, fatty liver disease, etcetera than the US, especially when using individuals states. Many of these diseases are connected to the modern western diet which is replacing native cultural diets. You should see the mcdonalds here-packed everyday all day.

    In regards to spring and sunburns here in Denmark please know that when the days get longer, the sun have immense power. Put that together with being indtjening water, which acts like thousands of little mirrors reflecting the sun back up at you makes your chances of getting a sunburn 100% especially if you're not wearing sunscreen. This comes from a person who burn very easily and doesn't like to wear sunscreen but will do it if I'm on the sea.

    Great video guys.
    Suggestion for your "digital Denmark" that might surprise your American viewers.
    Denmark pretty much "know" every person living in the country and everyone has the yellow card as you say.
    This help with other non-health things as well. One of them is elections!
    Naturally you guys wont get to vote in the Danish election. But when election time roll around every person that are eligible to vote will AUTOMATICALLY get their voting cards. You do not have to register!
    Voting will usually take place at a nearby school. So it will not be far away and unlike some pictures I see from the US, there will be very little queing in order to vote. The election official will check your vote card and give you the ballot.
    Also the early results are usually tallyed by the end of the evening and final result the next morning.

    • @bzdtemp
      @bzdtemp Před 2 lety

      It is also important to note that when people vote they do so on paper so there are no voting computers. The ballots are counted by hand and it is done by volunteers from the different parties, it is made sure there is people represented from all sides and if there is ever a question a simple recount is easy to do.
      Plus there is rules that make sure election campaigns are fair and short, so money for advertising doesn't decide the elections.

    You mentioned that your first doctor didn't speak English, in such a case, the procedure would be for the doctor either call up a translator or have a translator present during the appointment.
    There is of course a (limited by law)cost associated with it, but ignoring the cost for a moment and focusing on the 'ease' of the doctor having a translator at the ready for the patient is a plus, there is of course a limitation on numbers of translators and spoken languages, but to my knowledge, they have about 80 languages to select from.
    I hope that non-native utilize the translation services each time, so they can get the best service at their doctor or hospital.
