I experienced the Singapore system first hand. They apologized for charging me around $30 usd for an urgent care visit that was walking distance from the apt complex and 30ft away from the pharmacy that charged me $5 for Rx sinus medicine.

My partner at the time had told me I didn’t need to buy “travelers insurance” for this trip.

That’s when I figured out the us healthcare system was a giant scam.
