re: #71 iceweasel

Depends on what you’re in for. Some things are considered elective and you;d have to pay. I was treated in the ER here in scotland the week i arrived (kitchen accident). I wasn’t yet formally registered with the NHS. They didn’t care. Free treatment and Jim was horrified when I told him that in the US we would have gotten a gigantic bill.

they were even kind enough to change the dressing for me twice when I was lazy about getting a GP. No charge.

Ah, OK. I guess that makes sense.
