Some Dummy Gets Utterly Owned By RE Vanella in the Comments

Filed in National by on April 16, 2019

Someone brought up the German health care system. That never happens. Here in the US of A we are supposed to make pretend that no industrialized countries figured out health care. Or, more precisely, we are supposed to make pretend that no other countries exist unless them are in need of corrective bombings.

    All You Medicare for all people. I live In Germany and have a “German Green Card” The “socialist” solution is lying to you. I pay 1000 Euro per month just for me. My wife also pays 700 euro. Someone always pays. Back in the 80s all prescriptions were free, not so much anymore. Can anyone guess what you pay for Crestor or allegra? You guys have no clue.

      Do you forego GVK for private PKV?

      Anyone making like 60,000 Euro or less have to buy into the GVK scheme but the choices are all non profit and heavily regulated. You pay like 10% of your salary unless you make less than I think 900 Euros a month. In which case you don’t pay.

      It’s basically means tested Medicare that dates back to the 1880s. In 2017 over 80% of Germans rated the coverage Excellent or Good.

      But yeah, we have no clue.

      Of course it is based on your income. Care to tell us?

    Also…

    GKV covers you for primary care with registered doctors, hospital care (both in- and out- patient) and basic dental treatment. Non-working dependents living at the same address and registered with the Krankenkasse are covered at no extra cost.

    Better outcomes. Higher satisfaction. Lower cost than the US.
