Simple solution: Require catastrophic insurance for everyone (subsidy for poor) and have users pay (edit-) cash for everything else. This will increase competition, increase quality of care, and reduce costs.
Equalizer: That article should be required reading by everyone participating in the debate, whether individually or as part of the government effort.
Absolutely excellent article and it laid everything out in clear, understandable terms and language.
His solution, while simple and apparently workable, would undoubtedly be assailed viciously by industry lobbyists, which means it would probably work.[/quote]
This crossed my mind before but I still need to read the article.
