ryan/mac told us to take a pain pill just like zer0 said
I understand the plight, but medical services are always going to be expensive. Med services are very hi tech, new drugs cost 100 million or more to bring to market, physicians train for 10 or 11 years, and then there is a large cut that goes to the lawyers. Hitech medical services are never going to be cheap. Why pay for one more layer, by adding health insurance? Save the premium costs and put your money in an account for medical expenses— just a suggestion. My dad never had health insurance in his life and he did just fine. Why pay for an added service, insurance, when you can save money by direct pay? Take the lawyers out of all of it and everything drops by 20%.
You should concentrate on your county and state governments and charity hospitals, clinics, etc. Our constitution prohibits the feds from getting involved. And for good reason. If the feds get involved you end up with corrupt socialist Obamacare, only worse. Nationalized health care is the worst of all worlds.
The best thing he could do is get congress to be subject to whatever healthcare law they pass. Congress, their staff, and every government agency not covered by the VA. That way you will be sure the bill they pass will be a good one
You got sucker punched real bad by the Rino , Mr. President. Shake it off and lay them to waste. We need a good war. North Korea has called us out— DO SOMETHING before (not after) they kill 10 million here. That will unify us and isolate the traitors. Remember this , Mr.President.Paul ryan is a #never trump jack ass. And get rinse Penis out of the White House before he hurts you any more. You need NEWT real bad!!
In my view the single biggest problem with Obamacare was that it forced Insurers to cover people with pre-existing conditions in the individual policy market.
So, the cost of everyone with pre-existing conditions was put onto the ~25million who buy individual policies, rather than spreading those costs across the entire insured population.
Many pre-existing conditions have the potential for costs that are so high that one hospitalization for one person could wipe out the profit from several thousand average policyholders.
With that kind of insurance pool structure, with ~20 percent of individual policy holders having pre-existing conditions, the insurers can try to make money with huge deductibles and co-pays, but eventually will realize they can’t make money with individual policies and exit the market (which is happening).
I don’t think pre-existing conditions are really insurable by for-profit insurance co’s. And I would propose that pre-existing condition patients be pulled out of the private market, put on medicaid or medicare and charged a fraction of their income as premium.
The costs of health care procedures are actually dropping where insurance and gov’t regulations are minimal eg. cosmetic and veterinary. But as long as trying to limit pre-existing condition costs has the greatest impact on profitability of anything they do, the insurance co’s are going to focus on that, rather than finding efficiencies in treatment for their relatively healthy patients.
Please look into health shares. You can afford it, and you will be covered for a catastrophe.
