We take the quality of care in this country for granted

I agree with you!

A lot of Canadians cross the border for health care when it comes to surgical procedures

Many times the Canadian government might approve a specific procedure, but the waiting time for that surgery might be detrimental to the patient. Recently a physician I know brought his mother to the U.S. to have eye surgery. If she had waited to have the surgery in Canada, she faced the possibility of going blind.

IMO those who can afford the cost of paying for specific medical services, seem to prefer the quality of care offered in the U.S.
