1. Allow insurance companies to sell across state lines. ( deregulate)

Can you give me a scenario where that will reduce costs?

2. Allow tax free medical savings accounts.

Already available through many companies for those who offer high deductible healthcare plans. What about those who are self-employed or whose company doesn't offer an MSA? Will the government require companies to offer them? Or will the government get into the Medical Savings Account business?

3. TORT reform.

About half the states have already enacted some form of tort reform and in none of them is there any indication that it has reduced health care insurance premiums.

4. For those uninsured, medical service billings cannot exceed those billed to standard Medicare/Medicaide costs.
