The Canadians that do go to the US for Heathcare is normaly because a specialist of a certain type is available in the US before there is one available in Canada... and guess what... we only go if it is covered by our OHIP... so we still pay nothing LOL.
Canadian Heathcare For The Win!!!!!
For the different operations and broken bones myself and my family has had over the years, if we were in the US, we would be in the poor house! From what i hear you are looking 10K just for a broken bone in the US. I have broken both arms (one has had 3 surgeries on the elbow) an ankle, i have had 3 nasal surgeries trying to correct sleep apnea, son had opperations for bladder infections and tonsils out, not a cent outta my pocket
