To those people in the world who have access to universal healthcare, what experiences could you share with Americans in order for us to understand how it affects your life (positively or negatively)?

I was away from home in another region of Sweden

In total I paid roughly $60 + parking

I went to the hospital the next day, paid 400 Sek ($40 ish) and went to the ENT department.

Despite practicing at CB and WR, Bo Melton won’t compare himself to Travis Hunter - NBC Sports

My nose started to bleed and wouldn’t stop.

Most answers seem to be from the UK, so I will relate my experience here in Sweden.

They concluded I needed to be referred to the hospital in the next city (40 miles away) and booked an appointment for me for the next day.

What is the funniest joke you've been told that you still think about to this day?

After around 30mins I was called by a nurse who checked my nose. She then went to get a Dr to look further. This Dr then got another Dr to check and confer with.

remember this is all out of area

I saw 4 Drs, 1 of whom was a specialist, and supporting staff. I had a small surgery.

Why is Matt Gaetz being investigated but not Sarah (Tim) McBride? Why do we only care about grooming when it's the Republicans doing it?

I was leaving the hospital less than 24 hours from first walking into the health centre.

After an examination by a junior doctor, and a consultation with the consultant. I had a small surgical procedure, and went home.

I was told they were busy but would fit me in when they could but likely it would be 2–3 hours, especially since I was out of area, and not one of their patients. If I remember correctly I paid 200Sek ($20 approx) and sat and waited.

If there was only one man remaining on the Earth, would this be regarded as extinction?

seems good to me.

I walked into the local health centre and explained my problem and asked if I could see someone.
