Manong Goes to AMERICA! at ngayon I LOVE the NHS more! 

Kayo kamusta experience with healthcare sa ibang bansa?

US healthcare is 100x faster po compared to NHS. This depends if you have good insurance. But the efficiency alone is what makes it night and day difference. If you are traveling to the US kelangan talaga ng health insurance. The same if a tourist travels to the UK. NHS does not cover the cost but will charge you if it is not an emergency.

Very misleading, sa NHS din naman pag may tourist na na-admit under NHS may fee sila. I just had one american tourist na na angioplasty and he had to pay around £6k. Why would you even do this na ikaw mismo admin ng UK Fil nurses group. Clearly napaka biased ng content na to.

PRAY THAT SOMEDAY YOU WILL NEVER HAVE TO UNDERGO AN OPEN HEART SURGERY OR CRANIOTOMY , SPINAL SURGERY OR LIFETIME DIALYSIS, then brag me hows your health insurance will cover it if you have to stay for months or year in hospital....25 yrs in NHS in different specialties i will testify not a single dime has been paid by people in UK to have their heart , brain , spine and kidney fix and even a homeless drug addict can have this medical service for FREE... the 10%national insurance we pay is a SHIT compare to expensive the NHS spent .... NHS is not perfect but at least in UK YOU WILL NEVER DIED THINKING WERE to get that damn money to pay hospital bills..besides UK has a private medical sectors that can cater the well off family if they choose to go private..

Normal naman magbayad kasi sagot naman ng Travel Insurance. Makakausap mo naman sila alam ko pwede hindi agad magbayad.

I hate it when people kept saying or posting that the UK National Health Service (NHS) is FREE. It is NOT. Even if you are not working and not paying taxes, people that actually work and pay taxes, pays it for you. So it is not free and never will be free. Walang libreng healthcare sa mundo. Lahat binabayaran one way or another. It is only free if you are on benefits and not paying a single cent on taxes. This kind of videos does not give justice on the true nature of the different healthcare system in different countries and may discourage other nurses to try exploring the option of pursuing USRN. Grateful for the life we had in the UK and thankful for the opportunity to be here in the US. Blessed to be dual citizen of both worlds. But I will highly encourage UKRNs to explore USRN if given the chance.

You should stop saying the word free or not free because those terms are not accurate. The more accurate term is single-payer system. The NHS is an example of a single-payer system which is solely funded by the UK's National Insurance system and taxes. It's ironic to say that you don't pay insurances when the taxation system is called National Insurance (NI). The USA Medicare is also an example of a single-payer system where if an individual's case qualifies for it, their case could be covered. And the bills you mention are misleading. Wherever you are in the world, healthcare is always billed. The only difference is in the UK, you don't see the bill. For example, an ambulance in the USA could cost $2,000, but that bill is not necessarily going to be paid by you. It could either be fully or partially paid your by insurance. An ambulance use in the UK is also billed, but like I said, you don't see the amount. The USA thinks it is necessary to continue to pull funding both from the federal budget for qualified cases and private insurance companies to properly fund the healthcare system and incentivize it's workers. If you have a disability in the US, that is an eligible event for Medicaid cover or free healthcare. I'm not gonna go into how we treat our alcoholics, addicts and other scums of society. They are being fully treated for free in an ICU bed without discrimination. Individuals also qualify for Medicaid if their household income is $26k and below. Having a single-payer system doesn't necessarily guarantee a higher quality of healthcare. There is no perfect system. The UK has a more stringent control of it's borders to avoid congestion in the NHS. On the other hand, America believes that a country's GDP depends on it's population, therefore it has a pro-immigration foreign policy where if you have talent, we will happily take you in and pay you well. This is reflected with nurses and other skilled professions getting greencards or permanent residency status on day 1 of stepping foot in the United States, unlike the UK. But we can't just give everybody free healthcare because we don't want a compromise in quality. The country will however give it's workers competitive salaries and better tax advantages to balance everything. 7 years in the NHS, now in the USA.

NHS is not free,it is pre paid.

hi po thanks for sharing po! :) naitry nio na po ba magpareimburse sa UK health government un excess and Hindi naicovered ng travel insurance?

Sa Pilipinas the best😂😂😂

Aspiring to work with NHS someday😊❤

Manong yun po pag punta nyo sa A&E sa USA is naka tourist visa kayo. Same lang po ba walang babayaran sa UK kapag tourist din nagpunta sa NHS A&E?

They claim healtcafe in NHS is free,but if you think about it,it is not,it is instead pre paid as you have been paying for it the moment you start working and getting paid,thru taxes.

Very lucky po tayo sa NHS at so grateful..🙏🙏🙏

Pano po pag tourist sa UK na maospital like sa case nyo po when you went to US may babayaran din po ba?

I am grateful to the NHS is, it has helped ma lot when I was in the UK.

Pinanuod ko agad Manong George. Ganda ng topic. 😃

I just gave birth via CS, lahat ng scans, consulation at meds ko free, I have GDM pa naka insulin, metformin at free style libre sensor ALL FREE! Pati gamot ko sa DM ngayon libre!

I have to agree with Manong 💯 There will always, always be pros and cons wherever we are, but then again at the end of the day, ma realised natin na mas lamang pa din talaga ang benefits compared sa disadvantages. Personally, dapat maging grateful tayo kasi we have this opportunity na wala sa iba. 👍🏽

Dyan talaga lamang ang UK, NHS and Holiday (Vacation).

If mag tour din po ba ako ng UK, and magpunta ako A&E free po ba? try ko din po para makita how much and what's the difference ng US healthcare sa NHS 😊

Free rin nman doon once meron ka health insurance, kung pupunta yung taga US sa UK libre ba?

Anti NHS? NHS patients being treated in hospital corridors, car parks and cupboards. More than 120,000 people died while waiting for hospital treatment. Many are suffering from misdiagnosed cases. Its the reality. Hindi nmn sinisraan yan, Kung mya mali batikusin hindi ibig sabihin non e hindi ka thankful. Typical pinoy. Bawal mag reklamo ganun ba? kaya nga minsan comment ng mga briton e naiinis sila dahil hindi nag speak up ang mga international na nurses dahil doon hindi namimeet ang standard of care at wala na babago sa pamamalakad ng matron. Like always, George invalidates experiences of others because it does not happen to him. He's like that employee who sucks up to his terrible boss even though the company sucks and sinking. I don't know why they need to keep defending NHS. Magiging rabid yung mga followers ng group nila pag may nasabi kang hindi maganda sa Uk. Wala ka nman masyado makikita mga ganitong tao na sobrang defensive countryng pinag trabahuan nila. Delulu masyado

Pag sa tourist ka din po ba sa UK tas nagpa A&E, wala din po ba kayong babayaran sa NHS? Just asking po kc plan ko po papuntahin mom ko..
