what other western european countries have a national health service.?

Answer 1

None,just the UK

Answer 2

Most EU countries, France, Germany, Spain etc., have the equivalent to the NHS (National Health Service). There is even a reciprocal arrangement so that before you go abroad, visit your NHS GPs surgery and fill out the relevant form and you'll be covered as an NHS patient while abroad - which means basically the NHS will pick up the tab if you're taken ill in say France. The French will look after you and collect the money from NHS.

Answer 3

As in so many things, Britain pioneered the way. Unfortunately the NHS has never evolved from the top-heavy government body it was set up as, while other countries have developed their own systems of looking after the health of their population and are gradually leaving us behind. That is probably behind the reforms that Blair wants to carry out but typically he is avoiding stating the truth.

Answer 4

None quite the direct provision of the British NHS. Most have a mix of local government, national government and private provision underpinned by compulsory national insurance paid at wages source (so in effect a tax like NI).

Answer 5

I am not aware of anyother country in Europe with an NHS besides England, however, Sweden, Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, France, and New Zealand all have very good health cares. Germany has the highest % of GDP spent in health care out of the above mentioned countries.

Answer 6

All countries have NHS
Do you really think that NHS exists in UK only?
How stupid are you?!!!
Well I guess your empty brain is typical for a Briton!
