Default Re: Hospital cover, who has it?

BE INSURED , TO THE MAX YOU CAN AFFORD .
just to show anyone who thinks it isn't worth it . a friends wife came down with breast cancer . 80 grands worth of treatment for a few grand , because they were privately covered , the alternative was to wait on the public system till they fit you in .
a lesser example , you walk outside twist your knee !!! cannot walk without a real struggle .
your options are , wait for elective surgery , as it's not life threatening , and not anyones problem that you cannot work , could take 3 to 6 months wait , but the good news is it may get a little better while you wait .
or cash could be 15 to 20k upfront thanks , we can do it next week sir .
or i'm in a private health fund can you do it next week ? sure we can , but just give us $500 so we can pass it on to your health fund .
