We’re paying now - and we’re paying MORE because the ‘health care’ system for the poor is so corrupt.
When a poor person goes to the hospital emergency room for a bad cold the taxpayers get billed thousands of dollars for the visit. Sometimes in cash - sometimes in tax write-offs for the hospital. WE PAY FOR THOSE WRITE OFFS IN LOST TAXES.
When a doctor walks into a nursing home with medicaid patients and spends 5 minutes looking over a few charts a nurse set out for him he charges the MAXIMUM amount Medicaid allowes for EVERY patient in the facility. NOT JUST THE ONE PERSON HE SAW BUT FOR EVERY PERSON. Five minutes work - thousands of dollars.
We’re being taken to the cleaners with this ‘health care’ carp because lobbyist are ‘bribing/donating’ to the folks who write laws on health care...
Over 90% of the money the average person spends on health care is spent in the last 6 months of their life. That’s the doctor jackpot. Yep and lots of doctors do their morning walk through a hospital picking up thousands of dollars by writing a few meaningless words on a chart.
Unless you’re willing to let people die in the street if they don’t have the cash to pay for service on the spot - we need to come up with a realistic plan that’s not a taxpayer ripoff - because we’re paying through the nose now.
