Many of their Docs-to-be have been in the US learning how to be a Doc. You have any evidence to support this claim? I've met loads of docs here, not known one of them to be trained in the US. Why you think they have been? The question is: --Who should pay for the care of the patient? The answer is in the article. Employers will be responsible for providing insurance cover to their employees. Where there is no employer, a resident of Dubai will be responsible for insuring dependents and those sponsored by them. in other words, if you got a job, your employer pays. If you don't got a job, the person who sponsored your resident visa pays. Citizens in Dubai already have free health care. This article is about non-citizens. If you're working, your company pays. If you're not working, whoever got you into the country pays. --Should every individual in the US be required to have medical insurance? You're going off topic here. The article is about universal coverage implementation in Dubai, not in the US.
