General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

I have had private health insurance since the late 1960s. I Have explained before on these boards that it came about as part of my late husbands pay package, it was a family cover. My son used it once for removal of an ingrowing toe nail. He became exempt at 21. I have used it over a period of a few months for a small back problem in th 1970s. During my husbands terminal illnes it gave superbservice. Hovever now that I have had my 80th birthday I am obliged to contribute monthly, I will do so willingly.
Another thing is health insurance people are accused of jumping the queue, are we not shortening the queue.
Forgot to say some payment was taken from his works pension contributions during his working life.
