"WAY cheaper" than free, publicly insured procedures in Canada? Or are these non-insured procedures?

Also, "WAY cheaper" when correcting for purchase parity power between Canada and Poland?

Also, "WAY cheaper" when accounting for differences in quality of care, regulation, and existence/quality of malpractice insurance of providers?
