Free at a Public Hospital. If I go to my preferred doctor at a nearby clinic about $15.
Most people in Australia don't have any health insurance, but some want to go to a Private Hospital with their choice of doctor, so they would have insurance.

[3 points] 2 years ago by deleted user ReplyFor one person $262.28 per month--but that will go up a LOT in August when the annual renewal comes up.
What I get for that--
One physician;s visit for annual checkup.
One Mammogram
One Pap.
A $5000 deductible--that is FIVE THOUSAND DOLLAR deductible. Per YEAR.
I can only use it seven months of the year, while I am in New York. The rest of the time I have no insurance at all.
Decent hospitalization coverage if I need it--up to $5 million per year--and assuming I am not immediately canceled if I try and collect on it.
That is about 12% of my GROSS (pre-tax) income.
Don't say it is free-it's never free. It cost plenty even for the "unfortunates".
The word "free" was never mentioned in the question or any of the answer options.

Oh, excuse me, cost "nothing", it never cost "nothing"- it always cost something. Better??
Under $450 a month, but I have to add that "my family" consists of just me.
ditto
I can not buy insurance. I pay a little over $400 per month for my 2 kids. This includes dental and has fairly high deductibles and they pay fairly well.
