	~~== Healing ==~~

	Healing in the Fondent region comes at a cost - initially we were thinking the player would have to sit through an in-game advertisement (for Greenwash Graze-X or Miaownolith Milk or something, not a real product). But another option would be to actually charge the player each time.

	~~The fee might be $1 per HP - or double that if there's a "call out fee" - i.e. if the player blacked out.~~

	Players could also buy private health insurance which might save them money - but it would come with a hefty cost both in terms of the fee and the excess. It would also have a long list of terms and conditions which the player could read - but which would take a while, and they'd keep getting prompted to quit reading.

	~~=== Centre dialogue ===~~

	~~Would you like to heal your monsters?~~

	~~All done. That will be $x dollars. [Or: Plus a $x call-out fee since we had to send the ambulance to collect you.]~~

	~~Oh, you can't afford to pay? No problem. We'll add it to your bill, plus 10% interest. [Interest charged on all money owing not just new debt.]~~

	~~When you win money, we'll take a share [50%] until you've paid us back. Easy peasy!~~

	~~=== AMBEARANCE COVER - PRIVATE HEALTH INSURANCE OFFERING ===~~

	~~After every few lines, the dialogue prompts: "There's X more pages. Keep reading? Y/N"~~

	Private health insurance offering for one (1) person (hereafter, the "licence holder"), applying to up to fifty (50) monsters captured, traded, bought, won or otherwise possessed by the licence holder. This offering is only valid between 1 January and 31 March of this year. Ambearance Cover Ltd can withdraw the offering at any time.

	Ambearance Cover is available for all persons between 15 and 65 years of age. It pays medical costs for a licence holder's monsters at all approved hospitals, approved allied health facilities and approved vetinerarians and specialists (whether administered in their office or on-site).

	~~For the avoidance of doubt, Ambearance Cover does not apply to:~~

	* Treatment of a licence holder's own injuries, sickness, disease, disability, etc. or any other medical or health procedure relating to any human.
	* Any prescription or non-prescription medicines, pharmaceuticals, prosthetics, crutches, wheelchairs, therapeutic devices, or other items, whether deemed necessary or unnecessary for the treatment of a medical condition otherwise eligible under this policy.
	* Cosmetic or other procedures.
	* Providing any items or support for a monster to morph.
	* Renaming, retraining or otherwise modifying a monster in any way.
	* Breeding, fertilisation, "day care", fertility treatment or other reproductive services.
	* Incubation, delivery or other birthing services.

	Licence holders may not capture, trade, buy, win or otherwise possess other humans for the purpose of them qualifying as "monsters" Humanoid "monsters" are eligible for healing only at Ambearance Cover's discretion.

	Ambearance Cover is a progressive scheme that is charged in proportion to a licence holder's ability to pay. Ambearance Cover Ltd will receive the first 5% of all the licence holder's earnings from any source ("licence fee"). Ambearance Cover Ltd reserves the right to unilaterally modify this rate without notice if its deems that the policy has been "abused".

	~~"Abuse" of the policy includes but is not limited to:~~

	* Trading or otherwise receiving monsters for the exclusive, part or potential purpose of bringing them under the insurance policy of a licence holder.
	* Waiting until multiple monsters need treatment before seeking healing in order to only pay the excess once.

	A licence holder that fails to report, fails to accurately report, fails to pay or otherwise withholds any part of Ambearance Cover's licence fee will be liable for three times the amount withheld, plus 10% per month compounding weekly.

	~~Excess is $100 in all cases. The excess can be modified at any time without consultation or the licence holder being informed ante facto or post facto.~~
