John asked:
How is the availability and quality of the medical insurance in Canada compared with other countries, such as USA, Australia, Europe? Is it easy to find a good family doctor/specialist? and how is the quality, is it expensive, etc…
I also ask about the quality, how about the quality of doctors.
Canada’s medical insurance is national, that is, it’s funded by the government. This is good, because it means that everyone has insurance, but the cost is that taxes are higher to compensate for it. America doesn’t have universal medical insurance provided by the government, but I do believe that Europe and Australia do, so any of these places other than America has easy access to medical insurance.
Qualifying for an insurance policy may be a concern for some if they have a preexisting condition. Because of the health condition medical insurance is adamant. There are a variety of companies and policies available online that will not discriminate against anyone for any reason making qualifying easy.
