It quite honestly baffles me, the state of your health care system. Here in Aus, anyone can see a doctor for as little as $20. I have a concession card which means I don't pay to see a doctor, dentist, or pay for blood tests, x-rays, etc. I only pay for specialists (I see a physio and orthopod) and even then its cheaper because of my card. I can't imagine living somewhere that I couldn't seek medical help because I can't afford it. What happens if you go to the ER without insurance?
