Lack of access to machines also means longer waiting times for diagnostic assessment, and mirrors the longer waiting times for access to specialists and to treatment found in the comparative studies examined for this study.

Thanks for the info but my request for link was in regards to countries going bankrupt as a direct result of centralized health care, not a request of an example of long access wait periods or someone's opinion of the service provided of another country's health care.

Running through todays American health care mine field can be just as frustrating if not worse than what our European counterparts experience IMO. Nothing different there, it just depends on who your health care provider is and how golden your plan is.
