Healthcare for residents and citizens is significantly cheaper in Canada compared to the United States due to Canada's publicly funded universal healthcare system (Medicare), which covers medically necessary hospital and physician services without direct out-of-pocket medical bills or monthly health insurance premiums. In contrast, the United States relies on a complex private market system characterized by expensive monthly health insurance premiums, high out-of-pocket deductibles, co-pays, and the continuous risk of medical debt. However, Canada's public system excludes certain services like prescription drugs and dental care, requiring private insurance for those specific needs.
