Today, AOL ran commentaries on American health care and whether the new proposals will make a difference. The comment of one CEO who runs an enormous health provider, caught my eye. As I read it, I thought “he is talking about the USA, but the exact same thoughts apply to Qatar, to Kuwait, to Germany, where an epidemic of self-inflicted health problems is growing wildly.” And it also occurs to me that he is laying the accountability squarely where it belongs – on our...

In France, the system works on the basis of reimbursement – you pay a set amount when you see your doctor based on the type of treatment you are receiving and then are reimbursed by the French health service, known as l’Assurance Maladie or Sécurité Sociale.

Since my February medical update, I have indeed pursued if I would get any support from our insurance with household help, because technically I cannot do my job right now and Ritsu, besides being between 2 major workshops, has to do a lot of the stuff that usually I should be doing.
