I'm fairly satisfied.
I think that we need to fix what we already have.
There are limits on what doctors can charge for most services, there should be limits on what one can obtain in a law suit.
Hold pharmaceutical companies accountable for the exorbitant prices they charge.
When someone on Medicaid goes to the emergency room for something other than the threat of life or limb, their monthly check should be docked. Going to the ER for menstrual cramps (yes, this actually happens) is not an emergency.
Make it lucrative for MDs to accept Medicaid. A lot won't accept Medicaid because Medicaid doesn't pay very well and takes so incredibly long to pay the measly amounts that they do pay.
Medicare should be Medicaid for the elderly. Whatever they need, take care of them. That's all, end of story. Never mind the different parts, just one program for the elderly and go with that. Pharmaceutical companies should be held accountable for the prices they charge for medications used by the elderly. Maybe there should be s senior discount for these medications. No more than $5 copay for each prescription for those 65 and older. No matter what the medication is.
So, yeah, more regulations. Regulate the pharmaceutical companies. Re-regulate Medicaid and Medicare.If this makes it better than the lousy insurance company that I currently have, let me in on the deal, but don't force me to pay more for my private healthcare insurance, Medicare and Medicaid and whatever else they feel they can charge for.
