I think the thing to remember is we don't have 'free healthcare' in Australia. Some health care is subsidised through Medicare but we don't have universal no cost medical treatment.
Eta: I just wanted to add that I am not saying that to be mean or anything...I just think it helps to think of it a different way. Imagine how much everything would cost if it wasn't subsidised!! We are really, really lucky, even if we sometimes have to pay a little out of pocket.
