Singapore Healthcare

I found this article on the Singaporean Healthcare System very interesting. It was a bit confusing to process all the details, but my understanding was that they have a government sponsored catastrophic insurance plan and payroll taxes that are put aside in an account to be spent on medical expenses. It was also interesting to see the different countries' healthcare spending and "healthy living" ages. I'm certainly not a proponent of government sponsored insurance, but they seem to have some of the right ideas. Click here for the article.
