   Extractions: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Socialized medicine is a term used primarily in the United States to refer to publicly-funded health care The term is used most frequently in the U.S. political debate concerning health care The term was first widely used in the United States by advocates of the American Medical Association in opposition to President Harry S. Truman 's 1947 health-care initiative. Jonathan Oberlander, a professor of health policy at the University of North Carolina, maintains that the term does not mean anything at all. Exact definitions vary, but the term can refer to any system of medical care that is publicly financed, government administered, or both. The original meaning was confined to systems in which the government operates health care facilities and employs health care professionals. This narrower usage would apply to the British National Health Service hospital trusts and health systems that operate in other countries as diverse as Finland, Spain, Israel, and Cuba. The United States' Veterans Health Administration , and the medical departments of the US Army Navy , and Air Force would also fall under this narrow definition. When used in this way, the narrow definition permits a clear distinction from

In the summer of 1962, Saskatchewan became the centre of a hard-fought struggle between the provincial government, the North American medical establishment, and the province's physicians, who brought things to a halt with a doctors' strike. Health care in Canada is delivered through a publicly-funded health care system, which is mostly free at the point of use and has most services provided by private entities. It is guided by the provisions of the Canada Health Act A health card is issued by the Provincial Ministry of Health to each individual who enrolls for the program and everyone receives the same level of care. There is no need for a variety of plans because virtually all essential basic care is covered, including maternity and infertility problems. Depending on the province, dental and vision care may not be covered but are often insured by employers through private companies. In some provinces, private supplemental plans are available for those who desire private rooms if they are hospitalized. Cosmetic surgery and some forms of elective surgery are not considered essential care and are generally not covered. These can be paid out-of-pocket or through private insurers. Health coverage is not affected by loss or change of jobs, as long as premiums are up to date, and there are no lifetime limits or exclusions for pre-existing conditions.

   Extractions: During this election season, we again hear a lot of demands that government do something about the high cost of health care, including insurance. There are many ideas out there, but the most persistent is that we ought to emulate Canada's national health care system. The Clinton administration proposed this as one of its top priorities; John Kerry's plan is very similar. In Canada, all medical care must be provided by public institutions. Funding for the clinics and hospitals comes mostly from the national government, but the provinces are in charge of providing health care services. Private health care providers are completely outlawed. Since doctors are employed by the state, no one in Canada has to pay for care. On the surface that does sound tempting. Americans who are self-employed or work for small companies are lucky to find health insurance coverage for $1,000 per month, even without serious pre-existing conditions. Employees of larger companies are paying ever greater shares of their health benefits as well. And of course there are many who must simply gamble that they will stay healthy because they can't afford health insurance premiums. Getting health care coverage while paying zero dollars to an insurance company sounds too good to be true. Unfortunately, what sounds too good to be true usually isn't true. First, of course, the costs would be covered by someone: you and everyone else who pays taxes. I might not have to pay over $1,000 per month any longer, but my neighbors who work for big companies in Cincinnati would be forced to pay even more than they do now to cover the added cost of caring for my family. No commodity is free, least of all the services of highly trained doctors, nurses and technicians, using state of the art medical equipment. To make it worse, forcing you to pay for part of my medical bills is simply immoral.

    Extractions: July 26, 2007 By David Gratzer My health care prejudices crumbled on the way to a medical school class. On a subzero Winnipeg morning in 1997, I cut across the hospital emergency room to shave a few minutes off my frigid commute. Swinging open the door, I stepped into a nightmare: the ER overflowed with elderly people on stretchers, waiting for admission. Some, it turned out, had waited five days. The air stank with sweat and urine. Right then, I began to reconsider everything that I thought I knew about Canadian health care. Government researchers now note that more than 1.5 million Ontarians (or 12% of that province's population) can't find family physicians. Health officials in one Nova Scotia community actually resorted to a lottery to determine who'd get a doctor's appointment. Eventually, Chaoulli took on the government in a case that went all the way to the Supreme Court. Representing an elderly Montrealer who had waited almost a year for a hip replacement, Chaoulli maintained that the patient should have the right to pay for private health insurance and get treatment sooner. A majority of the court agreed that Quebec's charter did implicitly recognize such a right.

Angioplasty Nobody wants their neighbors to go without health care, and socialized medicine promises health care for all, regardless of financial situation. Unfortunately, socialized medicine has many problems. Previously, I have written about health care in Europe. America's neighbor to the north, Canada, also has problems with its health care system. Canada often has doctor shortages and waiting lists that cause wealthier patients to travel to the United States for care. The following are some examples of why Canada's health care system is lacking. Canadians wait an average of 18.3 weeks to receive the surgery that they need, according to the CBC News. For some treatments, the wait is considerably longer. Patients needing orthopedic surgery might have to wait more than 38 weeks, and patients needing neurosurgery might have to wait 27 weeks. Many cardiac arrests in Canada could be prevented by using an implantable defibrillator, but the wait time is so long, sometimes doctors don't even bother to refer their patients to get one. Children routinely wait months to more than a year for "elective" surgeries like having their tonsils taken out, having tubes put in their ears to prevent ear infections, saving their sight by surgically realigning their eyes, or removing benign tumors from their faces.
