0410 the health insurance system

Taiwan's health insurance system is in danger of collapes.The medication in Taiwan is quite good and cheap compared with western countries.There is a piece of news on Internet.An Australian couple went to Canada for a trip last August.When they planed to go back,the woman gave birth to her daughter.Because the baby was prococious,she stayed in a hospital for three months.When the couple went back to Australia,they recieved a bill from the hospital.They had to pay one million US dollars because they went to a hospital without heath insurance.
The insurance company refused to pay the bill.Giving bith in foreign countries is exclusive of their insurance. The couple are willing to pay the bill.They are happy to have a healthy daughter.They will pay three hundred US dollars per month for 278 years.
