The Collapse Of EU Health Insurance System Is A Matter Of Time

The revolution of the medical industry in intensive care paves the way for the collapse of the health insurance system, and the patients will pay high taxes from their general health.

Today, 25. Sep. 2017, I attended the ESICM LIVES 2017- 30th European Society of Intensive Care Medicine Annual Congress held at the Austria Center. Giant medical companies have offered the latest equipment as a replacement of the old in the medical centers and the hospitals.

Briefly, the health system in Europe seems to be working to finance the investments of large medical companies and gradually paving the way for ending the public health insurance system and turning it into a private sector.

The middle class, the poor and perhaps the majority of European society will be the victims of this dangerous trend in public health and medical treatment.

To illustrate this, I have made a number of calls with cardiologists, ophthalmologists, orthopedics and neurologists to help a patient to make appointments for necessary medical examinations after he made heart operation and received two consecutive strokes.

The surprise was when I did not find doctors who still deal with the health insurance system. They were all private doctors and the patient has to pay € 250 per visit.

At best, I managed to schedule a visit to a physiotherapy center, but the surprise was when the medical team informed the patient that his treatment would begin at the best of conditions by the end of 2018, meaning that the patient had to wait more than a year due to the long waiting and advised the patient to take the necessary treatment at his own expense??

Only today, through what I have seen at this conference, I understand why doctors have switched to private treatment rather than health insurance.
