[QUOTE="beatupbrown, post: 251265, member: 4488"] Wkmac I am on the web every day and use it as a huge library .I was just saying good link ,there is so much more out there .I have been studying on health care for a solid month and have learned a lot on the subject. The key for me to learning is keeping a open mind on the subject .I feel some people are closed minded and they miss the whole boat. Health care spending is expected to double within the next decade.15 Though Americans spend almost twice as much per person as citizens of other industrialized countries,16 their health status is no better and by many measures actually worse. Americans die younger, and their newborns die more frequently than in other developed nations.17 Inefficient and poor quality care costs the nation at least $50 to $100 billion every year.18 Billions more are wasted on administration and overhead because of inefficiencies in the health care system.19 America has the best health care technology in the world, but it is often not used well, and due to varying practices, it is often wasted. Tens of millions more Americans are at risk of losing coverage. One in three non-elderly Americans goes without insurance at some point over a two-year period. Some families see their claims denied or insurance cancelled after they incur large bills. Half of US bankruptcies are caused by medical expenses, even though two-thirds of bankruptcy filers had health insurance. Insured Americans also pay higher premiums – $922 on an average family policy and $341 on an average individual policy – to pay for the cost of treating the uninsured. [/QUOTE]
