HealthCare USA - a Positive Feedback System (squeel...)

[Guest guest]

The real problem with Health Care in the US is that it is a positive

feedback system.

The doctors don't care what things cost, because the insurance companies

pay for it anyway (generally.) The insurance companies really don't care

because the more billions that run thru their system the more money

their executives rationalize they're worth. The more tests the doctor

orders, the " better " job he or she is doing, according to our legal system.

And it is of course the American Consumer who ends up footing the final

bill through insurance payments, health care coverage at work, private

plans etc. But clearly NOBODY in the Health Care Industry has any

reason to lower costs. It is, in fact a positive feedback system, the

more expensive it gets the more money they make.

Something wrong with this picture, America?
