I think those 'long waiting times' are mostly a myth perpetuated by those opposed to single payer/universal health care.

The fact is, every system has long wait times and short wait times depending on the situation.

I have health care insurance through my employer and it is the most comprehensive and quality health care insurance in my area. A few years back I waited close to eight months for gall bladder surgery. On the other hand, my cancer was diagnosed on a Monday and I was in surgery before the end of the week.
