Health care costs in BC should be falling as the government moves doctors to store front clinics replacing traditional doctors offices. Try and get a physical exam today. It's almost impossible. When you do get a appointment for a complete physical, the test they do falls far short of a complete physical. In my case it was check the blood pressure, listen to my chest, ask a few questions and send me for Lab test of which I never herd back. I don't even know what the Doctor billed the government but it shouldn't have been for more then 15 minutes. The whole thing could have been done in the reception area.
