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 :)

kuyrwm5I don't share your experience. I have been in and out of public and private Danish hospitals for 57 years (the last 40 with a chronic illness) and have received good care in almost all situations. When my son 20 years ago was complaining of tummy ache (where I insisted on hard abdomen and suspected appendicitis) on a sunday morning in the Easter holiday I got a phone diagnosis, ER appointment, child and gastrointestinal specialists, and operating table time slot within 4 hours. He survived appendicitis and was back on his feet in 7 days.
I have received medication for 12 years which costs the state 100.000 DKR a year for free. Plus hospital checks every 6 weeks. This would have ruined or killed me in other countries. Instead I am a productive member of society able to work full time (and thereby pay taxes to keep the system going).
I can send my GP a message and he will reply on a friday evening or sunday afternoon (but that's just him being work-obsessed) for free and in most cases get a subscription for something or get referred to a specialist. Very smooth process :-)

kuzg1t3r/AwayUnderstanding236 I completely 100% agree with you. The healthcare system works. Ofc. there are heavy challenges with understaffing and financial problems, however the system works. The staff do amazing work even though they are stressed and basically running all day, but they always have a smile on their face towards their patients and they are really professional and good at their work. I have the utmost respect for them. ❤️🌹
