I have just come back from battling with the health system (again). The way it works here is that you pay up front for all medical care and the state reimburses a percentage of the costs, unless you have a 'magic' card. If you have the magic card you need never hand over a penny (assuming you have the right insurance too). We have now been waiting for this magic card for 18 months. Last summer I went in and the lady said that it would take a few months but to be patient.
I went back in today only to be told that the reason the card hasn't arrived is because we haven't applied for it. It transpires that when the lady said 'it' would arrive - she meant the application forms (which are sent out every January).
Don't get me wrong, I love living here but,
ARRGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!
(thank you)
