[Fredslist] Link to TIME Magazine Scathing Review of the Current Healthcare System

[Katalin Goencz]

I just like to add that the aricle by Steven Brill addressed the cost of
medical bills for those without insurance.  While every insurance policy is
different, all are policies are helpful absorbing the ever changing and at
time outrages "chargmaster" list prices.

Medicare rates keep surfacing in the article for a simple reason;  the rates
Medicare pays are public information, and stark contrast from what hospitals
actually charge for their services. 

 

The article is 36 pages long. Don't attemt to read this in your coffee
break.

Thank you Queenie!!! 

 

I encourage all of you to read this issue of Time Magazine. The more we
collectively understand the rising costs of healthcare, including long term
care, the more we can reign in the abuses. And abuses abound. Today
Healthcare costs 8% of every after-tax dollar. In twenty years it will cost
33% or more of every dollar.* 

 

For those of you interested in learning more about the new Affordable
Healthcare and your business from an indusrtry expert, please join Gotham's
new NY Health and Aging/MAD joint luncheon on Thursday, 3/14, at the Frias
Club.

Good Afternoon Along the Network,

 

A TIME article regarding the gory truth about US Health Care.  It's a must
read for all involved in the healthcare system - whether patients,
providers, pharmaceutical companies (BIG PHARMA) , hospitals, etc.  Our very
own Kaitlin is quoted in the article.  Keep her in mind once you digest the
information in the link.  You are likely to need her services.  

Best, 

 

Queenie,
