The psychology that enabled medical costs to skyrocket is the myth of US capitalism. Specifically, the notion that the more you pay for something, the higher its quality is. That is also further bolstered by labeling universal healthcare as worthless communism. Politicians would suggest that with socialized medicine, you could die in the waiting room before seeing a medic.
The AMA fought universal healthcare because doctors loved being the richest guys in town. AMA support started eroding as the cost of running a "doctor's office" started growing along with the time demands to keep the books and process insurance claims. Doctors started opting to join group practices, then entire corporate-sized practices that include hospitals and clinics. Their administrative costs jacked up fees. So, today, you can die in the waiting room before seeing a medic.
Excellent disclosure of the Insurance industry's early attempt to undermine universal government medical insurance through false claims. Will you cover how the insurance industry recently did the same, spreading false information about the Canadian system, as Hoffman did about the German system?
Here is how vapid Americans are. She died last April from Lung Cancer that metastasized to her gall bladder, Socialism (Medicare) covered 80% of her medical costs, she was a divorcee and had no 2ndary, and could only pay a minimum of $35 a month to cover the 20%,
Knowing that they would come after her estate, which amounted to her home, mortgage free, she transferred title to her beloved grandson..
She was a Trumper, and we stopped talking for years, she would rant and rail against socialialism, even as she drew medicare. She said that a Facebook friend from England, btiched about the long wait times to see a doctor. Idiot
That situation occurs in America you have to make an appointment to see a physician, I have a primary care physician and he has other clients and has to see them by appointment.
If you need urgent care, you can always show up at the emergency room, Granted in large cities they are usually swamped. I live rural and am seen almost as soon as I walk through the door, if carried in on a gurney it would be faster.
She also claimed that she was against socialism as she read all of Taylor Caldwell's books, of that I can't testify because I have read none.
As regards Facebook, it is dominated by cranks and bots.
Peripherally, there three ways to treat cancer, Chemotherapyh,Immunotherapy andChemo with surgery.
If you test postive for the protein PDL-1, as I and my sister did, you are eligible for Immunotherapy.
Immunotherapy is like chemo in that it is an infuision and they hang a bag, but there are no side effects, like hair less, and instead of killing cells, it boost the immuno system
There are two brands of Immunotherapy, Keytruda and Opdivo. Keytruda was what kept Jimmy Carter Alive for 10 years, and me alive for 9 years now.
My sister was on Opdivo, I checked it out as compared to Keytruda, a different chemical compound and not as efficacious, I urged my sister to have her doctor switch. The doctor, who probably received a bonus or gift from Bristol Myers Squibb.
The scandal that no one talks about is that physicians are given gifts in return for writing scripts
Not only was Opdivo not efficacious, but her cancer metastasized to her gall bladder and endocrine system, and by the time it was discovered, it was too late, she died wearing a colostomy bag
Typical of a malignant narcissist Cheeto cares little for his fellow human beings and actually takes pleasure in inflicting pain on people, whether they are his “friends”…he turns on them on a dime….or enemies.
He belongs in jail with his counterpart Netanyahu. And let's not forget Kegseth. Cheeto and Kegseth should both be tried in the International Criminal Court(ICC) for supporting Israel in their reign of genocidal terror as well as for the boat strikes in international waters. This is probably why the US has never been supportive of the ICC because of their own pugilistic style of international relations.
We’ll see how long Netanyahu can keep his finger off the trigger. Like Cheeto he would go back on the ceasefire if he felt it would be to his advantage. An evil axis of two, supported by a dry drunk.

Former insurance executive Wendell Potter was the Hoffman equivalent. After the Canadian healthcare system's response to the COVID crisis was far superior to the US, Potter had a crisis of conscience and came clean. I don't think the press reported the superior Canadian COVID results or the extensive false claims about the Canadian system in general.
