That makes sense -- I guess private healthcare would make sense if there were a section of the public that didn't think they'd receive the treatment they needed if they weren't paying for it (and as you said, you couldn't imagine a family like the Malfoys going to a public hospital; plus with the way the wizarding world seems a little entrenched in the traditional, it's not too hard to think that rich pureblood families might have their own Healers paying them home visits and whatnot either!) but in general, government-owned institutions would probably be the norm, yeah.
Thanks for explaining this to me, Fairy!
Evyclaw PS. Sam, same comment as Fairy's, no need to count this for points since it went a little off-tangent. :)
