And this sleep study session isn't exactly cheap! Thankfully, the Ontario Medicare system picks up the tab <hew!!>
come on, yamdigger, you know we ALL pick up the tab...i assume you pay the crazy taxes the rest of us ontarions pay? please don't perpetuate the myth that we have free health care here in canada...we pay dearly, and get very little for our money

you are right, of course, yamdigger...i agree that with all my health issues i would certainly not be able to afford treatment if we didn't have OHIP; but when i think of what we could all afford if we weren't taxed up the ying yang, i could scream...especially with all the surplus funds the gov't keeps reporting, but nothing ever seems to get done, at least not for the average joe

but i'll concede, better than nothing, our "health (sick) care system"

good luck with your sleep study!
