Laz, I won't argue with your statement here. One of the small problems though, is that something like 20% of Americans with insurance then go bankrupt when hit with a serious cancer, and 25% without insurance go bust... Best regards, John Cancer is a terrifying killer. Early diagnosis and quick treatment are essential. The sooner cancer is diagnosed, the sooner treatment can begin. Quick treatment, in turn, leads to higher survival rates. In the same survey, only 1 percent of U.S. hospital executives believed that a 50-year-old woman “with an ill-defined mass in her breast but no adenopathy”[6] would wait three weeks or more for a biopsy.[7] The wait in countries with greater government involvement in health care, however, is likely to be much longer.
