I have to make the decision tomorrow whether to go public or private for surgery (mastectomy). I would really like you have the surgeon I have been seeing, rather than a registrar, but otherwise would happily go public. Even just the treats so far to diagnose I am out of pocket close to$1k, as MRI wad not covered at all. So disappointed in my health insurance. Surgeon gave me a quote, gap is doable, but cannot tell me about all the other expenses, tests, etc!
