re: #66 schnapp

One of the managers at the HMO I worked at was a woman from Australia. We were having a discussion around the cost of benefits and coverage, and she told me that the elderly in Australia in fact are denied certain treatments. She said that there are places run by the government (at no charge to the resident) where these people can go until they pass, and they are treated “royally” until that time comes.

To your knowledge, is this true?
