'The beggar cannot be a chooser, and that is essentially what we are, when it comes to our current healthcare model'
SooToday received the following letter to the editor from reader Ryan Mosher in response to an earlier letter under the heading Privatization won't fix Ontario's health care issues.
From 2005 through 2015 I was a resident in the state of Michigan and the remaining 33 years of my life a resident in Ontario. Using my WalMart Employee health savings account, I found that the prices of services I thought were expensive, were not and we did not have to wait long for important appointments.
Mr. Slater has given us an example of the public system failing in two situations, with scheduling/booking and medical transportation availability, and no factual basis for his overall conclusion that privatization will not work.
