To those people in the world who have access to universal healthcare, what experiences could you share with Americans in order for us to understand how it affects your life (positively or negatively)?

I went to the hospital the next day, paid 400 Sek ($40 ish) and went to the ENT department.

After around 30mins I was called by a nurse who checked my nose. She then went to get a Dr to look further. This Dr then got another Dr to check and confer with.

In total I paid roughly $60 + parking

Fishing is a popular pastime on many US beaches. What is a type of saltwater fish commonly caught from piers or by wading (flounder, redfish, etc.)?

Can I have a comfortable life as a nurse in Sweden? Can I buy a house and not worry about the cost of living?

I was told they were busy but would fit me in when they could but likely it would be 2–3 hours, especially since I was out of area, and not one of their patients. If I remember correctly I paid 200Sek ($20 approx) and sat and waited.

I was leaving the hospital less than 24 hours from first walking into the health centre.

Most answers seem to be from the UK, so I will relate my experience here in Sweden.

They concluded I needed to be referred to the hospital in the next city (40 miles away) and booked an appointment for me for the next day.

I saw 4 Drs, 1 of whom was a specialist, and supporting staff. I had a small surgery.

My nose started to bleed and wouldn’t stop.
