In Britain the gubmint provides a health insurance that is ok unless you have cancer. In Switzerland the gubmint requires everyone to buy health insurance, and one with a $1000 deductible per year can be had for about $100 a month (no dental). In Germany its a family benefit paid out of wages and is expensive for singles and cheap for big families. Edit: In Britain one can buy a private supplement to the NHS in order to get immediate specialist treatment.
