[QUOTE="Jim Beam, post: 1021957, member: 6760"] Yes, this is an aggregate of many problems circling the drain simultaneously. Blaming a shark for being a shark is not the wisest idea and killing the alpha shark will not bring about the change your average American is looking for. Panning out your view and applicable solutions is a far better choice. See the problem as a whole rather than in a silo. Is there greed in the insurance carrier arena? Absolutely. Like any other company, in any other field they are there to turn a profit. And at the same time we also know that likewise Hospitals and medical professionals are there to turn a profit as well. Understanding this paradigm we must operate within the tenets of this paradigm to render an appropirate solution which both makes sense and is effective at achieving the end goal. Appropriate care for [B][I]AMERICANS [/I][/B]first. So lets now examine Just ONE of many culprits to enormous insurance premiums and rampant denials we see causing so much of the justifiable rage. What do you think happens when a hospital is forced to provide care for thousands of people per year which have no means whatsoever to pay their bill? Do they simply operate at a net loss? Or do They siphon as much money as they possibly can out of the people who have a carrier that can foot the bill? This is why anyone with insurance can observe a [B][I]simple[/I][/B] ER visit consisting of a few hours of basic care costing somewhere in the tens of thousands range for services which basically amount to blood pressure and temperature reading, a few inquires about general health and a handful of Tylenol to take home. Whereas you can get those same exact services at an Urgent care facility for approximately 150.00 a visit Why? The urgent care facility is not forced to care for people who cannot pay the bill. Now throw in an influx of illegal migrants who are pretty much a guaranteed loss and what do you have? The problem I mention above exasperated. Again, this is merely ONE example of the many problems plaguing the entire healthcare industry [/QUOTE]
