I agree with that UCG but I thought the article was pretty neat. It pointed out a few important issues. First off that doctors in Australia are paid much less then they are out here. That there is a MUCH LOWER issue with regards to TORT reform. Finally that the govt very much encourages people to get private health insurance. Also that people cannot be denied due to previous conditions.
Not to be lost is the issue that the pharma industry (and other lobbyists) have a much tighter stranglehold on the US govt then in Australia so I do not see much hope and change. Yes there will be a govt system put in place but we are already seeing many exceptions being granted as well as those same industries still have a stranglehold on govt.
Same beat, different drummer. More people covered which is good. Let’s see how much it cost.
