Not on a theoretical level, but how would you practically have to pay costs, access specialist doctors?

    In Denmark its paid through taxes.

    I still have to pay to visit the dentist though, which can be quite expensive.

    Regular doctors visits are free, but if youre refered to some specialist, like.. i had an issue with my knee, i was directed to some therapeutic pro. That cost me like 20 euros per visit. However, a friend of mine had to visit an eye doctor which was also free.

    And medicine also is self paid, like antibiotics or whatever. Its rarely super expensive though.

    But i when my kid was born we had no expenses at all. His mother had to stay (with him) for 2 days at the hospital and while there she had full free access to a stocked fridge, stuff for the baby (diapers etc) and all that jazz.

    Ive not heard of anyone having other expenses either, like cancer treatments or getting a broken arm fixed
