[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 4632966, member: 58386"] Spot on. The ACA was multi faceted but prevention and early diagnosis was first and foremost. ER care is by far the most expensive form of healthcare. people coming into ER's damn near dead with a half a dozen different critical stage ailments that could have been easily and cheaply treated months earlier. Fred's Myth lives in a state that stubbornly refused to get into the ACA. Now it finds itself a state where 1 of every 5 state residents has no health insurance along with being among the leading states in terms of the number of healthcare facility closures. In addition the ACA was the first meaningful attempt to bring nationwide regulation of insurers including it's discriminatory practice of denying coverage to people with preexisting conditions which everyone eventually experiences. He still seems to think that the only way to bring down costs is to provide coverage to only the healthiest and provide care to only those with assets and or personal wealth sufficient to assure payment.
