Well if you can afford private care you'll be ok, but a single bed in a hospital ward costs about 3000 Euro a night! So you'd want to be damn well insured!

And that's another thing: private health insurance here is going through the roof. Mine is just short of 100 Euro a month, so that's what, over a thousand a year? They're trying to get universal health insurance for everyone, but as usual the govt, who came to power on many promises they have failed to keep, are dragging their feet on this one too. Many people are finding it hard to make ends meet and with the choice being between their health insurance and food, they're cancelling their insurance. I'm afraid to, as with my luck as soon as I do I'll find I suddenly need it.

Bloody country!
