What precise comparative data do you base your opinion on?
Fair enough - it would have saved at least two posts if you had said all of this in the first place instead of just stating your opinion with no background.My opinion is based on mainly friends, family and my experiences of Irish, European and other world wide health systems.
Yes - as an A&E patient twice, my wife with the Rotunda twice, my father with the Mater while terminally ill, my mother with a few other hospitals over the years etc. I/we had no major problems other than with the billing/administrative departments of a few hospitals.What about you Clubman, what have your experiences of the Irish Public Health System?

He would have received exactly the same medical treatment. He may have received different accommodation and may have had to endure longer waiting times for certain admissions/procedures.My Father passed away 10 years ago off cancer .We aways had VHI .The treatment my father recived was firat class.If we did not have VHI i feel he would not have got this level of treatment.
Let us all know of your experiences "good" and "bad"? with regard to the Irish public health system.
In my opinion, the Irish public health system is the worst in Europe and maybe one of the worst in the world.
As someone who worked in the NHS in UK for many years, and now working here, I feel there is huge waste here, particularly within the management structure - little accountabilty, lack of foresight and imagination, and knee-jerk reactions to public outcrys with managers constantly being promoted to other areas inthe HSE, therefore not implementing recommendations effectively, and other managers just waiting until they retire.
That kind of statement really makes me mad.
Try comparing having cancer with no health insurance in ireland compared to if you were in the USA or even the UK
