    The only thing that’s free in the people’s hospital is walking in the door.

    But it is all very cheap, I got an xray, ultrasound, and consult for like 15 USD. Cuba seems to have a better model regarding healthcare.

        Its not quite that cheap, remember that wages here are much lower. OTC meds are often more expensive than in America, and TCM is sold alongside actual medicine
