Ok, that means nothing until you meet your ever increasing deductibles, out of pockets and premiums. The hospitals can and do charge what they
want.
Yes..as long as we spoiled Americans DEMAND instant medical treatment, no matter what the cost, economics will rule.
The only way around that is to have a Medicare-for-All system. And there must not be any Private Insurance available.
Private insurance pays physicians are paid an average of 25% more money for their work, than Medicare.. and 35% more than Medicaid.
If Privately owned or Business owned health insurance is allowed to continue, the BEST DOCTORS will only treat patients who have that insurance. They
will not need to "lower themselves" to accept the Medicare-for-all patients.
