Before y'all ask, I'm not american, I'm mexican.
The reason of why I'm asking this question in this subreddit it's because my (corrupt and horrible) president AMLO has prometing us many times in these 6 years of his (awful) goverment that we gonna have a good healthcare system as the danish one.
As you can imagine.....We're SO far from having at least a decent healthcare system like the european countries, so, after this explication, I want to ask you:
How good do you think it's your healthcare system?
What do you think yout sytem fails and in what ways?
Did you have only good experiences or you had a bad experience with it?
I would really blessed to read your answers :)

kuy6mivPoor people with most tooth diseases or certain eye diseases are fucked in the Danish healthcare system.

kuy7h3iHow so? It is possible to insure yourself/ your Child for such stuff beforehand.
Ofc by not doing so, you are kinda fucked with some costly bills

kuyce60Children have free dental until 18 years. If they find a problem before turning 18 it extend to cover that as well.
Sure there are private insurance as well

kuyiqyyIt’s actually up to 21 now if you’re born after 2004

kuyols6Oh nice to know for my children 🙂
KindlyInvestigator42 at 2024-03-15 06:05:35+00:00 ID:
kuydo9hExactly, just insure your kid before hand, and yourself, like everything else.
Sheepherder196 at 2024-03-15 06:43:56+00:00 ID:
kuygzs9It just shouldn't be necessary to ensure something like that when we pay some of the highest taxes on everything
KindlyInvestigator42 at 2024-03-15 06:47:28+00:00 ID:
kuyhae0we pay some of the highest taxes because 42% of our budget goes to welfare checks.
Sheepherder196 at 2024-03-15 07:34:32+00:00 ID:
kuyl5kaThat doesn't explain at all why we should insure ourselves to ensure treatment.... equal options and rights between rich and poor is something that always has been important in Denmark even though we're not really there. If we start the "just ensure your health" logic why not just live as in the US?
KindlyInvestigator42 at 2024-03-15 07:40:38+00:00 ID:
kuylna2And High taxes doesn’t explain why we shouldn’t, there isn’t enough money to everything, when 42% is used for welfare checks.
Because USA and Denmark is not comparable, stop bringing USA up in every debate just because we talk about insurance.

kuy94u4It’s their own fault for not being a member of Sygesikring Danmark 🤷

kuyoxi6Yeah fuck those poor people man..
Acceptable_Sport3847 at 2024-03-15 10:40:55+00:00 ID:
kuz0id5Wait? Since when do you have to be poor to be member of Sygesikring Denmark?
LocalLifeguard at 2024-03-15 10:45:32+00:00 ID:
kuz0xwwIt's kind of cute that you don't understand what it means to be poor. Small things do not cost anything in themselves, but try to guess what happens when you have to pay several small amounts

kv07eenNow that I can understand. But money wise it can really pay off because of the treatments they will help you pay.

kuzrh1qI find your remark heinous and disrespectful. Far from all can get assurance through Sygesikring Danmark. My son included! He was diagnosed with mild Aspergers at the age of 16 yrs. He was trough childhood covered by my insurance, but turning 18, he needed to draw up his own assurance. He was declined bcs. of his Aspergers diagnosis. (They had never paid 1 øre towards him under my coverage.) And just to add a little 'fun fact' - he is currently studying medicine at Copenhagen University 3.rd.year! Sygesikring Danmark is solely a cash earning company like all other companies, and don't want sick people they have too cash out too. I know this for a fact …

kuyrtfoDental care is free for kids up to 18 (and beyond if you are in treatment) which takes care of most problems. Just get it done in your teens :-) For eye diseases I don't know, "god bedring"
Humptie-Dumptie at 2024-03-15 12:29:50+00:00 ID:
kuzcnyiEye diseases are within the boundaries of the healthcare system. I think you are referring to glasses. If you have an eyesight of over a certain level, be it +/- you are automatically covered by the healthcare system, and that also includes glasses with prescription.
