The biggest issue I had with the US healthcare system was how confusing it is. And how much you seem to have to know upfront what you’ll need, where to go, etc vs trusting experts in the system to guide you. Even with top tier insurance from my employer. A lasting memory of that was in our prenatal class when they wanted the expecting mother’s to do a blood test to check for various risks. Queue much frantic checking by all of the other white collar employees of Bay Area companies to see if the pathology in this hospital was in network or not.
I don’t live in either country any more, but if I had to choose I’d take the UK system.
