A single-payer health insurance system in this country would equate to rationed medical health care. We the people of this nation will be subjected to a one size fits all attitude and even more individuals will suffer the consequences. They will suffer because anyone who does not fit into the mold dictated through the Internal Revenue Service will be left behind.
It is true that our medical health care system and our health insurance system can use some upgrading, but moving to a single-payer health insurance system will hurt more individuals than it will help. This has a firm base on healthy individuals and then assisting these individuals to remain healthy by dictating their every thought and move.
Theoretically, all citizens will have affordable health insurance and receive adequate health care services when they require the need. There are a few medical health care services that are considered to be standard and will be readily available to help every individual to remain healthy throughout their lives. What will the single-payer health insurance policy cover?
- All medically necessary health care services
- Medical health care physician expenses
- Hospitalization and all preventive health care services
- Long-term health care services and mental health evaluations
- Reproductive health care and dental care
- Annual vision exams and prescription drug medication
It is being said that all individual patients will have their own personal choice of medical health care physician and may also continue to visit with the medical health care physician they have become comfortable. Are you wondering just how long this will remain in place before the Internal Revenue Services begins to decide for you?
Medical health care physicians will be placed on a different payment plan than what they are accustomed to today. This is causing many in the medical health care profession to leave the profession completely and move to foreign shores where they will have the freedom to practice their health care the way they see fit.
This is going to lead to a massive shortage in medical health care physicians in this country and rationed care will be the end result. We are adding thirty million to forty million individuals to the health insurance rolls which is going to flood the system and overwork the medical health care physicians who are remaining.
The focus will no longer be on the need of the individual, but on the economic currency flow. This is a disaster in the making unless it can be changed.
