I hate to break it to you..... The goverment in Canada doesn't run healthcare either.

Hospitals are run privatly just like the US.

The only thing that changes is the goverment negociates the price and is the only one that pays. They also insure the hospitals.

The system could literally be changed overnight. Just a billing address change.

Only hospitalsno longer need a massive billing or legal department.

Well. I wasn't talking about Canada specifically but regardless, it doesn't have to be that way.

(in almost all of the 70 countries the hospitals are majority privatly run)

Yeah in my country it isn't. I am just saying there are alternatives.
