That's atrocious. Last time I checked, it was $44.00 a month here and low income seniors over 65 do not have to pay at all and they get free ambulance and inexpensive meds (No prescription cost over $25.00).

Just curious - what percentage of a wroking person's income goes to fund the NHS? I know that when I was living in England, it was atrocious and we still needed private insurance.
