I don't think the 95% figure is quite accurate. Wikipedia says 95% but http://prescriptions.blogs. nytimes.com/2009/09/11/heal th-care-abroad-france/?page mode=print Says over 99% http://www.nyu.edu/projects /rodwin/french.htmlAgain, over 99%http://healthcare.change.or g/blog/view/5_questions_abo ut_french_health_careThe Healing of America by T.R. Reid (p.53)says the last 1% received coverage in 2000.And 92% of french also have private plans as well, so they are basically covered twice for half the cost of here and their waiting times are about the same as ours. Just imagine if France spent the same amount we do, but with their system. It'd be a medical Utopia.
