Child's appendix bursts after 20 hour ER wait


Recommended Posts

Ship happens regardless of when and where but this sort of thing seems to happen a lot with socialized medicine.

Well I know Canadians and a lot of them say the same thing. And by the way, I'm also from Austin which is a Blue city.

I can tell you right now those are Canadians that know jack **** about their provinces health care. (It's a standard set by the federal gov and the provinces get to pick and choose how to implement it.).

In Ontario if it's determined that you need the procedure done ASAP they will send you to the States to get it done, as long as theres no Doctors available up here. Oh and OHIP will reimburse you. My mother for example has had three different forms of cancer, she's had to have 3 different surgeries all happened within weeks of each diagnosis.

I thought this was about the US as well before I read the OP. Fact of the matter is this will be even worse now in the US since hospitals are cutting all over as a knee-jerk reaction to the ACA.
