A very simple solution to the problem of uninsured and pre-existing conditions is a return to the public health system. Public health system hospitals would treat medicaid patients and medicare patients who don’t have supplemental policies, as well as military families and the uninsured, or anyone else who chooses to go the public health clinic or hospital.
Doctors killed the public health system because of the low pay. They could make so much more in private practice. That just isn’t the case anymore and will be even less so if Obamacare is put into force. A system could be put into place to pay off medical school debt in return for service in addition to the pay.
I have a friend who lived in Norway for 8 years. She told me that doctors in Norway make the same pay as a bus driver. That’s what Obama would like to see here. A public health system could avoid that.
