It is sick that they put such enormous prices on things that are produced for a tiny fraction of that.

This is just a plain crime. How come people don't go protesting on the streets? This is ridiculous. How can a continent claiming to want to be the most innovative in almost every area be this ancient in the most important area. This is as if america is still in the medival age. 2/3 will soon go extinct due to the plague...

The price issues are with the insurance companies, not the ACA. What we need is Universal single-payer. Congress should not have better care than we have.

I'm also reminded of the U.S. prison system, which thanks to being run by private companies rather than the government (you know, like it MAKES SENSE TO) keeping people in prison is very often much more important than helping people punished for minor crimes to be reintroduced into society.

That's why I look at the really far-right-wingers, like those in the U.S. government and just think "I can see other perspectives that I don't agree with, but that is just plainly evil on a universal scale".

SUCH BULLSHIT!!!!

Well the ankle surgery from a slip and fall cost my friend $2,000 with the now destroyed Affordable Health Care act. As a blue collar worker who makes around $25-27,000 per year she has to pay almost 10% of her income for ONE ACCIDENT. That is WITH COVERAGE. She paid monthly to have access to the care, she fell, the surgery cost over $20,000 and was sent home with no instructions and no assistance. No rehab. Thank goodness I'm an OT and I could set her up to take a shower without falling again, and buy her own equipment so she could get around. It's appalling. Oh- and with her blue collar job guess what her 6 months of income was due to being out because she could not walk? $0. No paid sick days, no paid vacation days. She serves food to the 1-2% and the rest of us. Tip well people.

The biggest problem is in the US we have a population of over 350 million people and only 99 million taxpaying units. Those 99 million taxpaying units cannot support everything. The ACA came about and was a failure, in order to provide free care for low income individuals the middle income wage earners medical insurance went through the roof. A coworker with a wife and child went from $200 a month for full coverage including medicine to $1400 a month for emergency coverage only and was set to increase by 20% this year. There are a number of issues at play including overpriced healthcare, a large amount of the population that abuses ER visits and never pays and an overall large population. Everyone would love to see a comprehensive system that provides coverage for all, but the US is not a small population like most other countries.

The U.S. has some of the most cutting-edge medical treatment techniques in the world. We owe this in part to high scientific research standards. People come to America from all over the world to get some of the best care available anywhere. Government institutions such as the Food and Drug Administration, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, and the National Institutes of Health help ensure that patients are given quality care, treatment and safe medications. The FDA can pull a drug off the pharmacy shelves if it is deemed unsafe. The NIH sets high qulaity standards for biomedical research. The mission of AHRQ is to improve the quality, safety, efficiency, and effectiveness of health care for all Americans. Another benefit of the U.S. health care system is that if you have the financial means, you can choose the type of health insurance you want. You also have the option to choose your own doctor.

First off, how the heck is getting to choose our own doctor something remarkable? Doesn't everyone? Unless they live in a remote area with one doc in range, I mean. Second, the US spends more money on research, but does not actually get more results than other large countries. Much like the rest of US health care. The Uk is in fact the leader of research results per head, with one of the cheapest systems in the first world. Lastly, on medical tourism, you do know stats are kept on these things, right? 80 000 people come to the US for treatment each year, mostly from the third world. 1,5 million Americans go abroad for treatment each year. Massive economic system rejection. Economically, why would people go to America with its titanic out-of-pocket prices and poor hospital error rates rather than just go private in their own nations?
