St. Jude is famous for marketing that a child’s family should never receive a bill for treatment. I don’t believe that an American should receive a bill for prescriptions, preventative or diagnostic health care. We can set up a federal system through the Department of Health and Human Services, paid for by every American based on income level. Doctors and hospitals only bill the U.S. Government. In turn, the U.S. Government will have robust auditing and quality checks to ensure we, the People, are not being overbilled or taken advantage of.
Once a diagnosis is made, it can be determined whether the U.S. Government or private health insurance will pay the bill, not the patient.
