What can be done to "fix" managed health care? |
Is there any possibility? It is so broken now. Did you know that 178 BILLION thats with a B dollars were spent last year just on the administration of medical care? They use economic tricks and small print waivers to lower the fees they pay to hospitals, doctors, other health care, while their CEOs are walking away with billions in bonuses yearly. Will the system have to implode entirely for something to get done, or will someone come up with a reasonable plan? The consumer needs to become their own advocate first of all. The more people that do this, the more competition will be created. The author of "Healthcare for Less" was on NECN the other day and mentioned great ways to get some fantastic discounts...with and without insurance. One of them is negotiating with your doctor....I did it recently without my insurance and save 50%!!!!! I suggest getting this book and using it as a guide throught the healthcare system. You can get it real cheap on www.amazon.com or got to your local Borders/Barnes and Noble and request the book. |
