You can't opt out of government-provided health insurance. It's not even really referred to as health insurance, it's really just referred to as health care.

I get my additional private health insurance paid for by my employer, so I never actually pay myself, but the same one seems to be going for about €110 a month.

I don't know that I would buy it if I had to pay myself, but I'm quite happy to get it for the small amount of additional taxes I have to pay on the benefit from the employer.

For me, it's not music. Not mentally stimulating enough, it just makes me irritated. It has to be podcasts for me.

Music works when I'm doing tasks that are already mentally stimulating.

They are unironically attempting to murder us with cringe

Fler tåg, nu och för all tid.

300 km/h snitt hela vägen ner till södra Spanien, allt annat är otänkbart

Glöm inte att tydligt kommunicera sarkasm, annars får du smaka på alla foamers outgrundliga vrede.

They look quite sturdy too.

Yes, but there are two different ones - one for medical appointments and one for medicine.

Sweden.

A few alternatives:

  • I could book an appointment at the local health center. I would probably get a time at the earliest next week, and it would cost me $30. Health center doctors are generally quite overworked, and can sometimes be a bit dismissive of your issues in my experience, but they will help you. If you need specialist care, they will give you a referral, which could take several months depending on the priority of the case and the type of specialist.
  • I could use an app to get access to a video call with a doctor, after having described my symptoms in the app. I would get a video call the same day and it would cost me $30. Given the remote nature of this kind of contact, they can be a bit limited in what they can do for you, but will try to help you regardless. If your case requires in-person examination, they will ask you to go to a health center instead. If you need specialist care, they will give you a referral and you'll have to wait the same amount of time as for a referral in the health center scenario.
  • I am lucky enough to have a private health insurance plan through my employer. If I have any problems, I'll submit them to this private health insurer, and they put a human on the case and connects me with a specialist right away if the problem warrants one. Typically this happens the same or the next day. This costs me nothing, apart from what I pay in benefit taxes to be on the private health insurance plan.

All in all, things work fairly well in Sweden, but having gotten private health insurance has definitely jaded me a bit on account of how much better the experience is when you have that. If only the public system wasn't systematically underfunded and run by the dumbest politicians on offer in the country, then maybe everyone could have great patient experience.

Watts are very individual, I wouldn't compare to anyone but yourself over time, if you're looking to improve your power.

Dude went from Gigachad to Gigachud at light speed

 

Få saker retar mig mer än NIMBYs. Fyfan. Stryk vankas.

 

SVT lär ut Märstaspecialen. Missa inte om ni ska mellan stan och Arlanda och är av den snålare sorten, likt mig

 

En blandad påse med förslag.

Jag håller med om att tågalternativet bör förbättras - hela soppan med public-private partnership som det byggdes under var råkorkad i grunden och de ansvariga bör få kännbara straff.

Däremot är motorvägsbreddningen inte alls motiverad. Att ta bil till flygplats är ärketrams.

 

Dags för nedläggning, omgående!

 

Vilka supermegaidioter som verkar jobba på Länsstyrelsen, alltså. Dags för avsked och fängelsestraff.

 

Jisses.

 

Ser riktigt flott ut det här, måste jag säga. Mindre möjlighet till att tågspana, men det är det värt.

 

Poäng till Borås, av alla ställen. Vilken bra idé!
