Among other things, the bill would prevent a 10% cut in Medicare payments to doctors that will otherwise take effect in July. Why does this matter?

  • Every Centralized Idea to Fix the Healthcare Will Fail, and Here's Why.
    This sounds like it should be a long topic, but in fact, it's very short. Every central system will fail because any sort of involuntary insurance is effectively a forced redistribution of wealth. Without eliminating the entitlements, it doesn't matter if there is government insurance, a choice of private plans, a hybrid system, a system that involves the easter bunny, etc... The system will eventually bankrupt itself because it will progressively demand more and more money from the most product

  • Ask yourself this question.
    Without single-payer, won't there be more cost-increases like this and won't those people with less projected income have an even harder time buying insurance? Under this plan, everyone would be covered and the extra costs are really not "extra" at all, because that is what will be paid if there is no single-payer. If there is single-payer the report suggests that health cost inflation will slow down.

He claims that a new legislative analyst's report of the costs of SB840, if implemented today, would leave the state $40 billion dollars in the red after just one year. That's true, but as Sheila Kuehl explains, that's because health care costs have soared while wages rem
  • Let’s Not Leave Anyone Uninsured! by Celia Wcislo
    The initial data from the Department of Revenue found that, so far, about 62,000 uninsured residents (2% of tax filers) would not be penalized for being uninsured because there was no affordable insurance available to them. When the full DOR data is received, that number may grow slightly higher. I would predict that a large number of these folks are people who are offered employer-sponsored insurance, but at rates that are unaffordable to them. Over a year ago, the Connector predicted that
