@fisherzhangs_in_china: No healthcare system is perfect—each has its strengths and weaknesses. But based on my extensive, firsthand experience with the Chinese system—from the births of both my children, to my own CT scans and physical therapy for a herniated disk, to watching my wife go through a similar ordeal today—I can confidently say this is a system that truly prioritizes affordability and accessibility for the people. What's more, it manages to be both efficient and effective. I have a huge soft spot for the NHS back in my home country and deep respect for the hardworking individuals who keep it on its feet against all odds. But watching its slow decline over the years has been painful. Increasingly, I find myself thinking that something closer to the Chinese model—government-backed healthcare that actually delivers on access, cost, and speed—might offer the most viable alternative if the UK ever chooses a different path. Not a copy, but a lesson: that universal healthcare doesn't have to mean slow or broken. #china #chinalife #chinatravel #chinese #chineseculture

It would be cheaper for me to fly business class to Shanghai and take didi to hospital than to take ambulance in USA

In UK I once waited 18 months for an appointment only to be told to take paracetamol. Ended up going private, and ultimately saved my eyesight with that decision as it turned out it was neuritis (nerve inflammation).

FYI in the US the average insurance premium may be $25,000 but your employer covers significant amount of it. So for a family you will end up paying about $2000 a year.

So jealous. My UK insurance for the family is £6kpa. Without that we’d be lost. NHS or regular GP’s are just impossible as the system doesn’t connect properly

Health care service in China if evaluated in US price would worth more than $20 Trillion. China GDP even calculated in PPP by some is undervalued

US probably the most expensive in world for hospital/meds, etc? You would think the 'mighty' US would have free health care by now.
