Fix Cause of Problems not Symptoms to fix Medicare

[Guy N]

This is a good article about solving not only Medicare problems, but our rising health care costs also. It states that we must focus on the things that raise the costs, including the way health care is billed, how we provide health care to undocumentmented residents of the USA, and a need to focus on prevention of disease.

I would have to agree with that article. If you do not fix the problems that cause health care to be so expensive, then how can you expect to fix Medicare? And why do we give free medical care to people who are not legal in this country? What's up with that?

I think doctors over use the "testing" system too. It seems all they want to do is send you for tests, and those things are very expensive.
