I always wondered if this was as simple as reforming the insurance companies, or if the entire healthcare industry needed to be reworked.
>> Medicare for All would prevent an estimated 68,000 unnecessary deaths a year.
Are there doctors and specialists with the necessary equipment just twiddling their thumbs, wanting to help people but the insurance companies refuse to pay so they just sit idle? Or is our healthcare limited by supply?
We might have to revisit a bunch of things like how doctors get trained/residency, what insurance should cover, public health around prevention, etc. rather than just saying "Give everyone everything".
