The monthly amounts being thrown around in this thread are insane... for someone outside of the USA anyway... I don't pay directly for my own health care, but I pay indirectly through a Medicare Levy which is 1% of my taxable income. I also pay around $USD100 a year for full ambulance cover for my family. (That's one form of insurance I consider worth it, as a helicopter ride in an extreme emergency could cost several thousand dollars)
