    That doctor would be paid by the NHS, not by you.

        NHS = National Health Service

        It’s what we have in the UK, and essentially means that all your health care is free.

        Vasectomy = free. Having a baby in hospital = free. CAT scan = free. Insulin = free.

        Admittedly, it’s paid for in taxes, but at a small fraction of the cost of the American way of doing things.
