Answer to Question 1

True

Answer to Question 2

Germany and Sweden provide universal health care coverage, with unlimited benefits. This means that citizens do not worry if they are eligible for coverage because everyone is eligible, and they do not worry about losing their health insurance if they lose or change their job. In both countries, individuals pay a small deductible (about 12 per visit in Germany) for doctor or hospital visits but pay no other outofpocket expenses. Taxes fund the system, and lowerwage workers pay a smaller health insurance tax than do higherwage workers. In Germany, about 85 percent of the population uses the governmentrun healthcare system; in Sweden, this figure reaches about 97 percent. The remainder opts out of the public system and seeks private insurance, for which they must pay separately.
