Medicare for All: The Two Issues It Must Confront
Paul Keckley [Opinion] Sept. 18, 2017
"The U.S. debate will center on two issues: the relatively high prices we pay for the drugs, devices, technologies, services and facilities we use, and the medical necessity for many services provided for which evidence shows no benefit. What happens to innovation if the federal government uses its muscle to ratchet down what it pays for services and who decides what's necessary or not? And what's the administrative expense necessary to managing our $3.4 trillion expenditure? ... The issue will be whether and how primary and preventive health will be elevated in a U.S. single payer model and how specialty and long-term care are impacted long-term."
