It is real simple....get rid of insurance...then prices would have to fall...an MRI in Japan is only $100 whereas here an MRI would be charged at maybe $1500....

because Insurance is nothing more than another form of bank, and the hospitals can WITHDRAW any amount at anytime; and this is the problem that the politicians choose to ignore.....

There is no reason a doctor should charge $600 for a visit that ended in writing a prescription.....PRICES are just too outrageous thus the need for INSURANCE.

I am saying get rid of healthcare insurance, and prices would have to come down.

That's my .05 ...now back to fishing..........who's going where this weekend....
