Editor's Notes
- Health care in the United Kingdom (including England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales) is coordinated by the National Health Service, which was set up in 1948 “to provide health care for all citizens, based on need, not the ability to pay.” More than 10% of the population in the UK is now covered by some form of private health insurance. The British health care system is experiencing serious problems with its funding, service, and staff that vary in severity across the region. A long-standing problem has been long waiting times for care, particularly for elective services and procedures.
- Canadians receive health care coverage through different plans, each administered by a provincial/territorial authority Canadian health care is provided mostly by primary care physicians, who account for approx 50% of all doctors in Canada. Over 95% of hospitals in Canada are private non-profit organizations. Among the serious issues in Canadian healthcare system are that concerned them were waiting for specialists ,emergency room services and diagnostic tests such as MRIs
- Everyone with employee (salarie) status in France is covered by a national health insurance plan, known as securite sociale. Coverage extends to spouses and children without employee status themselves. People who are not entitled to securite sociale are required to take out special coverage, known as assurance personelle. WHO ranks France healthcare system among world’s best healthcare systems. However, because of high level of reimbursement and coverage, French health care is among the most expensive in the world. If spending continues with current rate, the health service may be 70 billion euros in debt by the end of 2020.
- Most Germans receive health care coverage through the public health insurance plans, which are funded from contributions of employers and employees. If employed with earnings below a set income limit, you pay half the insurance contributions as an employee, and your employer pays the other half. Currently the rate is 15% of the net income which is compulsory deducted to the insurance system. The German health care system suffers from a lack of competition, insufficient or inappropriate care; shrinking revenue and an aging population.
