National Health Service (Britain)
Unless a person chooses to go privately, they receive all of their health care free from a GP or other health carer e.g. dentist. The NHS is set up so everyone gets free health care regardless of their economic status or job titles.
This is often thought of as good by British people, as they don't have to worry about medical costs when they should be worrying about getting better and relaxing. the NHs takes care of everything so that patients can simply get what they need done, done.
The problem is this often takes a while except in emergency cases. Waiting lists can reach a year in England, which sometimes is too long for patients, who feel they are forced to go private. Waiting lists always seem to increase, and even though the NHS tries to deal with this, there isn't enough money for them to make too big of a dent in it.
Also, 'superbugs' in NHS hospitals are becoming more frequent so it seems, and people have become worried about them during a stay in hospital. whether this is down to substantial cleaning or just chance, it needs to be stopped soon.
American Health Service
In America, people pay for the treatment they receive, whether that is an x-ray, an operation or simply stitches. People can get free, or help with, their health care depending on how much money they earn, or which jobs they do. Many jobs offer health insurance for all their workers, however this isn't many.
People often cope with this by having health insurance, which they pay monthly and ensures they will not have to worry about the cost if they ever need to be in hospital, as the insurance company will sort it out.
However, some don't have health insurance and this causes a big worry when they feel they are ill and need a doctor. Many people put off getting medical treatment as they know they cannot afford it, and can't worry about money. This could possibly put lifes at risk.
On the plus side, in America you can practically get seen as soon as you need to. there are no long waiting lists, and problems are often dealt with fast and in the patients comfort.
America also hosts the best medical practitioners in the world; with the best research. You can always be sure you will be seen by the best, and most likelt substantial care is something you shouldn't have to worry about.
So, which do you think is the best type of health care? Do you wish you had the other side of it? Do you have a good/bad experience with a doctor which has out you off? Or are you from a different country and think your health service is better?
