Is this news to anyone out there?
Mr. Michael Moore’s movie “Sicko” is a one-sided story written, directed and produced by a creative and intelligent man trying to make the point that the U.S. Health Care System is badly broken and needs to be fixed. Moore states an excellent case for a broad based Universal Health Care System for all U.S. citizens. Is this news to anyone out there? Aren’t the problems associated with the U.S. Health Care system in the news on a daily basis? Well, here the movie “Sicko” is bashing of the American freedoms that our health care system and citizens have enjoyed for decades. Once revered as the most sophisticated medical delivery system in the world, the current state of affairs with the U.S. Health Care System is akin to levees about to break from the perfect storms of over utilization, greed and dozens of other factors. There are many wonderful stories to tell about the U.S. Health Care System, too. Mr. Moore did not include the wonderful attributes of the U.S. Health Care System…only the atrocities. Well, reality is that there are many atrocities associated with Socialized Medicine, too.
The metamorphosis of our U.S. Health Care System will effect tens of thousands maybe hundreds of thousands of employees that work in the health insurance industry
Maybe the time has come. The U.S. Government, acting on behalf of all Americans, could flip the switch on public programs like the Federal Employee Health Benefits Plan or Medicare or Medicaid. Cover everyone the way our current socialized programs cover members. Apply all of the same rules, cutting out huge administrative costs. Now all Americans will be covered. However, we are still ignoring the huge medical delivery cost problem, the “Sicko” claim notwithstanding, which seems to be that Universal Care is the right thing to do for American citizens and our country. I agree! Let’s do it! Universal Care may not a bad move for this country. Universal Care needs to be phased in over a timeline that must be strictly adhered to. Tens of millions of Americans could benefit. Maybe we all will benefit. The metamorphosis of our U.S. Health Care System will effect tens of thousands maybe hundreds of thousands of employees that work in the health insurance industry. Most will start over again in hopefully some other productive career or have to be retrained. Employees of the industry are victims of insurance company greed just like those depicted in Mr. Moore’s film. Perhaps Americans are ready for such a change.
There will be private insurance gap plans in a Universal Health Care environment that permit citizens to purchase extra protection should they feel that they can afford and need it. Now the rest of the story is not so easy. Many laws need to be repealed. Our medical services reimbursement system needs to be overhauled. Technology needs to be embraced and “incentivized”. Preventive Care needs to be emphasized. Confidentiality needs to be protected. A whole host of other extremely important issues need to be addressed. We have to start somewhere and there is no better time than the present.
