Most do provide some form of coverage and how good that coverage is will often be a deciding factor in choosing who you work for (if you are lucky enough to be in a position to do so). At the tough end of the job market (retail stores, restaurant servers) just having an employer who provides 'some' health coverage is often seen as a 'perk'. What my employer provides is probably the main reason I've stayed there 6+ years and it will probably be my last job here.
At least your wife had the Operation before the mishap. Hope she Is OK mate.
Interesting how it works there cam. Thanks. Can see how it could work for the skilled, usually higher paid workers as you say but not sure how the other workers you mention get by. Not sure I'd like us to go in this direction although interested in how other countries do it.
Contrast this to the endoscopy unit at Royal Derby Hospital where I took my wife to earlier. Absolutely top drawer outstanding NHS care by everyone within the unit.
People are right to criticise/ complain when care is not properly applied but there are some good people about and the staff at Royal Derby were exemplary in their care & making her feel more at ease, which means a great deal to us.
NHS just got scammed for over £1m by a woman who posed as a psychiatrist,
for over 20 years.
To think she had the power to detain people against their will.
She has just got a sentence of 7 years in prison.
