Impossible without COMMUNIST! tyranny that lead down the path to everyone being stuffed into ovens.
Nope. Up front pricing, negotiated drug prices, and lawsuit reform will lower medical costs greatly.
Insurance companies should pay for patients going to other countries for surgeries. They will save money and so will we.
We should be able to buy drugs from anywhere in the world

When these guys get up to 1000 beds, the partnership between Narayana Health and Ascension Health intend to do that, but still a few years away. Doubt US will solve problems in that time.

I'm conservative, too, on economic issues, for the most part, but ladies & gentleman, our American system of balkanized, administratively-heavy, middlemen-skimming, parasitic loss, SICK CARE health care is so fundamentally flawed, broken and hopelessly complex (with near-monopoly entities in some cases literally pricing services, procedures, devices and pharmaceuticals at whatever arbitrary price-point they decide, because there are few, disciplining free market forces at work-
- we'd be way better off with a French style healthcare system, as a nation (we'd probably achieve high quality, more efficient care, at much lower prices, in a much more logically administered system).
