Sure, but when the salaries are too low like they are in Southeastern Europe doctors don't want to schedule surgeries($500+), do a proper look-up ($50-100) or even bother to check on you or when an inadequate doctor/nurse/practitioner checks on you or does a procedure and screws up what happens? Nothing. Tough luck pal. Healthcare is public, you're required to pay for it and it's deducted from your salary. What do you get in return?
Two nights ago I brought my girlfriend's sister to the ER, her appendix was inflamed, she couldn't walk, talk or move due to pain and was left waiting for an hour. They did blood work and gave her an IV and sent her home, told her "we cured you" after another blood work was completed and her leukocytes dropped a bit. No ultrasound, ct or anything advanced, they haven't even properly checked her stomach. Her leukocytes were >19000.
I was later told by a friend that I need to give a 50 to the nurse to push her through the line and another 100 to the doctor. Great world we live in.
Don't get me wrong, but I think you should not fix something that is not completely broken. Your doctors still do their work and don't expect money, expensive gifts, bottles of whiskey and roasted pigs like they do in my home country.
In my country number of doctors you're allowed to have in a Clinic/ER/Urgent Care is proportional to the number of people living in the region. There is 1.3 gynecologist on a region of 10,000 people. Is that normal? My grandmother has to schedule a month and a half in advance to get her prescription medication and check ups are every two-three months. Not sure how it is in the States now, but in my 10 year tenure there and 10 times I was in the hospital, I never waited for more than 10-15 minutes after my scheduled time.
