Not only do I not have health insurance since I opened a business in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, but I've had more and better PERSONAL service then I've ever had in the US. When was the last time your physician took your blood pressure or drew blood for tests? And walk right in without an appointment and have never waited more than 15 minutes? Remember house calls? My doctor makes them on weekends and the evenings.
I use Lipitor and Nexium - both WITHOUT prescription. Lipitor 20mg runs me $18 for a 30 day supply and Nexium 40mg costs more - about $30 for 14 days. No co-pays, no deductibles. Generics are so cheap it's almost laughable - $1.50 for cough syrup with codeine, indomethacin for gout, a strip of 10 @25mg costs 75 cents.
This has allowed me to offer healthcare to my 22 employees - all paid as a business expense because it's so affordable. Stay with us for 6 months and. I'll cover your families too.
What mess in the US - what a shame.
