It’s not just a disgrace. Why, it’s ... a model for our future!

despite the fact that in many areas, NHS waiting lists for operations are too long...

Yep, B.Hussian's model health care system, coming to a state you live in! Darn glad I couldn't have kids.

My question is this...VERY IMPORTANT>>> Can the British sue the NHS for malpractice? If not. It will never happen here.

I have a Brit friend who waited 3 years for an operation to correct a problem with her leg. The condition wasn’t life threatening, but it was painful and caused her to walk with a limp.

Of, I waited 8 months for a VA eye exam.

Sen. Jonanthan Edwards, pick up the white courtesy phone.

How many doctors could you have sued for cerebral palsy induced by labor, under a national health care scheme?

Yup. I was a ‘Yank’ who lived there and had to deal with the NHS. The UK has a ‘two-tier’ system. You can go ‘privately’, or NHS. I tried both (myself and child). I can tell you which one was better (you won’t even have to guess). My NHS experiences were NIGHTMARES!!!! I won’t bore you with the details.

"...“cost” determines the treatment..."

Daschle care promises the same for us. A new treatment could cure your cancer...too bad it costs too much.
