Comparing Healthcare in Denmark versus Healthcare in America

HEALTHCARE IN DENMARK VERSUS HEALTHCARE IN AMERICA
#Denmark #Danmark #DenmarkVsAmerica

In this video we tackle the topic of healthcare in Denmark versus healthcare in America. This basic overview compares both systems from a broad level.

Both Danish healthcare and American healthcare have a mix of private healthcare options and public healthcare systems. However, they are mirror images of one another with Denmark having full national health care coverage paid by taxes levied from regional governments. The United States healthcare system is broadly private, meaning there are employer-provided healthcare plans in America.

We explain how most Americans get healthcare coverage from employers, medicare or medicaid and how Obamacare made insurance more fair and provided increased coverage.

Danish healthcare has some pros like covering every individual when they need it and some cons like increased taxes, increased bureaucracy and inflexibility. We talk about some of our own experiences using the Danish healthcare system and what we like and dislike about it.

We discuss the pros and cons of the American healthcare system like being able to decide the amount of coverage and deductible that you want and the ability to pay less for a riskier healthcare plan. Then we discuss the negatives of the American healthcare system like the fact that not every American is covered, that catastrophic events can leave people with medical bankruptcy and the extreme hidden costs of healthcare coverage from American insurance companies.

We then tackle key misconceptions about both systems and offer correct answers to these questions:

Is all healthcare in Denmark free?
Are Americans unhappy with their healthcare system and healthcare coverage?
Do you wait a long time to see a doctor in Denmark?
Who pays more for healthcare cost, America or Denmark?

Finally we discuss our experiences of positive and negative healthcare outcomes in both Denmark and the United States. We talk about the healthcare culture in Denmark and how they shy away from medication.
