- Healthcare: We need to start over with real healthcare reform that puts patients and their doctors in charge, not unelected bureaucrats in Washington.
Fail.....more repeal OBAMACARE and we will let you know at some distant time what we will replace it with. Bring an offer to the table that is better, then we can discuss
Throw out Obamacare, and we replace it with exactly what existed before Obamacare was implemented. Then, we can go to work to fix the real problems with health care, one step at a time.
Step 1: Begin the process of increasing the number on health care professionals. Doctors, nurses, nurse practioners, etc. That means the building of new medical colleges and teaching hospitals. It also means good paying jobs for many.
Step 2: Create a national clearing house to diseminate medical pricing to all who wish to know. List, on the internet, the entire scope of pricing for all medical procedures nationwide. Medicare and Medicaid should be able to establish reasonable payments for all procedures, and force patients to pick up the difference if they choose a facility that charges more for that procedure.
Step 3: Open public health clinics around the country to provide primary care for all those who cannot afford to pay for that care. Staff these facilities with doctors and nurses whose training is subsidized by the taxpayers. One year of service for every year of training provided.
Continue the step by step process.
