And what kind of publicly funded health care system still doesn't recognise dental work as foundational to good, general health?

The one you likely voted for ?

Not once dies she metion it's part of The Greens policy to change that. "Dental into Medicare and tax billionaires" apparently doesn't resonate.

Same experience I've had working in private, now public hospitals. Private hospitals had a nice 12 day stay-cation, if people hit the ceiling of length of stay out they went, if people were quite unwell they got transferred to public. Probably a different story in metro private hospitals.

Yeah, a lot of good cardiology and vascular work gets done at the mount hospital in Perth, it's not that they're literally useless all the time. Just most of the time.
