Without private insurance in Canada, you wait way less time for that non-urgent imaging study than someone without private insurance in the US does. How long do you wait for that non-urgent imaging study if you have supplementary private insurance though?It's common in Canada for wait times for non-urgent (read: life not in danger) imaging studies to be up to a year, sometimes more. So, as a Canadian, he isn't making up bullshit. Wait times are a big issue.
Of course, Canada is far from the best single payer system.
What country do you live in?
