I have world wide experience..
That wouldn't be malpractice here, that would be standard practice. You have to wait in America for problems just as much as you do in Canada. If the Doctors are busy, the more your problem is specialized, the more you wait... unless it's an extreme emergency, everyone waits, sometimes for years.
I lived in Canada and Paid Canadian taxes... The taxed %'s in Canada are lower than Americans, before Americans pay for Health Insurance, all other taxes on are scale, at all healthcare levels.
Per-capita, The Gov of Canada spends half of what America already spends. Per-capita the avg Canadian spends half what an American spends. American spends 5% more GDP than Canada per-capita. Health Insurance wise, Americans spend more per-person than any other Country in the world.
China wise... They may have a good medical system that some people can reach, for sure not all.. and even so that doesn't change the fact the people are swimming and drinking lakes of raw shit and trash with nuclear waste and environmental havoc happening all around them.
Even in China, kids with birth defects wait.. it's not perfect in any country.
