Thanks for that, a really good article.
The whole healthcare debate is something that really interests me. I've lived in the US in the past so have some experience of both systems. I was actually diagnosed very soon after coming back and had become quite ill while living there, I feel very lucky that I was diagnosed when I came back as it must have been close! I did have insurance but it wasn't great so it would have meant a significant cost!
I feel so grateful to have the nhs, even with all its problems. The medical system in the States is great for those that it works for but for those with poor, or no insurance it is so difficult so I do hope the reforms, in some form, go through. My knowledge of American politics however makes me think it's going to be a difficult challenge....
