I am type 2, but here in Canada my cost to buy Insulin is way lower, I have no medical plan and buy OTC about 4 months supply for $60 CDN.
Also since I am diabetic I have to have a yearly eye examination but it is free.
So also for my visits to the Diabetic Clinic every three months where they monitor me.
All my doctor visits are free, I have a general (family) doctor, heart doctor, urologist, kidney doctor all free to make appointments with.
I do not know how I could afford medical help if I had to pay directly for it all. Yes, I have higher taxes, but I am 62. I have been paying taxes for decades. However, I have relatives in the US with low taxes but are now near bankrupt or are running out of health insurance.
