this is a great analysis of the shortcomings and inanity of our current healthcare/insurance system in the us:
http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/2…- None of the opposition is proposing anything at all. Just status quo.DrBombay
- what does that have to do with the article posted here you obviously did not read?johndiggity
- the last page has really great ideas for fixes.johndiggity
- It isn't being proposed.DrBombay
- HSA's are great if you have a ton of money to put in them. People with this kind of money have coverage right now.DrBombay
- Model it after Japan's system, the government tells providers what it will pay for things.DrBombay
- If you don't like it, you don't get the contract.DrBombay
- This is a really good article... and your concerns over HSA's is addressed in this link, MrDob.IRNlun6

- It still puts people in debt if they can't pay for things with their HSA, what does this solve? I did read it.DrBombay
- only non catastrophic events are paid out of the hsa, which will more likely than not, have enough to cover the costs anyway. this whole systems goals are to drive competitiveness and quality in the health care industry something lacking from anything we have or is being proposed.johndiggity

- I agree with a bit, but this business of putting people in debt to gov or private lenders is shit.DrBombay
- John, how can nation's like Japan, Germany and the UK have successful national healthcare, but not the US?DrBombay
- time. look at those heaklthcare plans in 20 years. theyre already beginning to crack********
- define successful healthcare. there are a lot of things wrong with those systems that we do better in our flawed system.johndiggity
