The public hospitals in Australia are often really good and prestigious institutions used for teaching as well. So, while you don't get a private room and luxurious amenities you do see top doctors. I can't comment as to why they stick around the public hospitals. I don't know that they make less money doing that. Procedures under the public system are scheduled by urgency, so for example you might have a 9 month wait for a torn ACL surgery. That's why most will carry private insurance. Private cover starts around $70 a month so it's much more affordable than US insurance and importantly much simpler to navigate. |
