<cough, cough, splutter> Australia has a principally government
funded (with 10-20%? direct taxpayer contribution) which is 
regarded as one of the most efficient, effective systems in 
the world.

I have had very good experiences with it. It's not perfect, 
but it's much -much- better than anything in the US.

I'm not sure what % of the population is reached by the Aus.
system, but it's my guess that most anyone who wants it can 
get it. Currently there are problems with the lack of doctors in
rural areas. I'm not quite sure what you are sayig in your last
sentence.
