As I understand it in places that do not have private healthcare, it's entirely different. Basically, one will simply receive treatment unless the procedure is considered to be cosmetic. Need a new heart? You're on the list. Need dialysis? You get it. These costs are balanced out by people who need very little treatment but still pay taxes.

I'll admit I have trouble understanding why one would support a system where someone is not allowed to get healthcare because it's too expensive. But that's just me.
