The cost for my medicin is aprox $20-25.000 USD a year.
Remicade: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infliximab

*I* pay $15 USD for each visit (each 2 months) or a yearly
cost of aprox $90 USD. I can live with that.

I have no additional medical insurances apart from the
public one that covers everyone.

Do I prefer our system over the US one ? Yes I do.
