In Spain healthcare is managed at regional level. My region is clearly ahead of the average in this regard (despite the amount of elderly people we have) and it's clearly not a breeze.
To the point that I use the private healthcare quite often.
Don't get me wrong, I'm thankful for the public service, Hospitals are superb and it will allways be there in case of an emergency, but this is mostly a site of US readers and I think we're misleading here. Our public systems are not a walk in the park either.
I won't get bankrupt, that's for sure. But I have to pay pocket/insurance if I want to get something done quickly and I'm not like, dying or something.
This is not precisely a good approach for prevention care.
