All of those countries provide universal health insurance coverage. Universal. Everyone, including tourists who happen to show up--and this I know from one of my daughters who fell off a stair at the Leaning Tower of Pisa. She fell, went into an emergency room, they took an MRI, bandaged her up, and said, ``Get out of here.'' And she said, ``Well, I haven't paid.'' ``Well, you are covered.'' That was in Italy.
