It does not matter that it is under the “Social” medicine or Private.
There will always be a group of doctors that must make a decision about medical resources.
Transplant decision being the first one to come to mind.
One kidney two patients. Who gets its? The 62 year old former alcholic or the 16 year old boy with malform kidneys.
Choice is pretty easy.
Also I was talking to my “mate” yesterday. His “mum” is still in the UK and told me he is not excited about socialized medicine having experienced it for himself.
He said that it is fine when you are young and healthy but when you get older that the care system there is “less than aggressive” to treat older patients. There is a aloof attitude towards the treatment of the eldery especially when it cost the state more money.
“They are old and going to die anyway” was his commentary about doctors attitudes.
I am not anti nationalized healtcare. However I have never heard anyone yet tell me how it is going to actually work that makes sense to me.
