Would it be better answer just elimite the health care company (the middle man) that way people can paid only when is sick, and government regulate the cost. This also benefit doctor since they don't deal with the annoying insurace company and be more productive and reduce cost. Many country has no health care insurance but still provide very affortable surgery etc..
--------------------
Eliminating the insurers is not the issue. The high cost of healthcare is actually not an insurance carrier issue like most people and the politicians are making it out to be. The fact is 99% of premiums collected are used to pay claims. The carriers make their money off the stock market like the banks do. The problem with insurance is more of an issue of a lack of quality doctors, since there are not enough doctors, the prices for services are inflated. The other major problem is rampant fraud that occurs. I know of one woman who was frauding medicare for thousands of dollars a year and getting them to pay for the transportation for all of her day trips to the mall until she got caught and that is just one of the many.
