Okay, great. Except this narrative is countered by the survey data that says 40-some percent of Canadians would use the US system if they could.
For several years, I thought I might move to Costa Rica after I retired. You might remember my few posts at the Fool to that effect.
One of the reasons was certainly the cost and quality of health care. Had I taken a survey at the time, I would have checked off the reason “I would use the Costa Rican health care system if I could”.
But I never did. I’m not sure of the value of a survey that basically measures wishcasting.
Certainly something to consider, but there are definitely better ways of analysing the comparative value/effectiveness of health care systems.
