Subject: Throwing more money at the problem?


Most Support U.S. Guarantee of Health Care
By ROBIN TONER  and JANET ELDER
Americans are willing to pay higher taxes to guarantee that
everyone has health insurance, according to a poll.

The sad thing is - as per discussions yesterday - this is exactly NOT the answer.
We need to be much smarter about the use of resources and funds then today.
 
Obviously a huge amount of money is wasted in fruitless admin' paperwork - just for starters.
 
Then - providing metrics to allow people to self-correct dangerous health maintenance behaviours.
 
And improving the level and quality of care within the system.
