My mother lives on a small fixed income. She owns her home, but only gets a small pension and has very little savings.
Recently she was diagnosed with the early stages of Type II diabeties, and cataracts. She's on meds for her glucose levels, has a strict diet to follow and sees a dietician each month. She had to wait 3 months for the cataract opertation, but had that last week and says her eyesight is now wonderful.
She likes her doctor and he or a nurse visits her at home once a month to check her circulation and take a blood sample.
For this my mother does zero paperwork and pays absolutely nothing. I'll take socialized medcine anyday
