Default Sweden's (wonderful?) national health care.

A Swedish man who's legs were amputated due to complications from diabetes was denied a powered wheelchair because the government health service was "uncertain if the impairment was permanent".

The manufacturer of the wheelchairs provided the man with one on loan after a media expose. Private business to the rescue after government health care missteps?

I'm so looking forward to government bureaucrats in charge of our health care.
