it looks to me like it was more like employers trying to manipulate the program LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 05/04/2012 01:30:19 AM
in truth, it was likely a little bit of both, as is usually the case.

I don't expect us to ever go back entirely to self-pay. But I think that shifting some attention away from "THE INSURANCE ISSUE" could be fruitful as well. Fix some problems that make medical costs high NO MATTER WHO IS PAYING, and it may alleviate the difficulty of "fixing" insurance.

The problem with cost reduction is that you need to consider the system. Artsapat - 04/04/2012 09:45:24 PM 382 Views
I'm not talking about that level even. Just basic stuff LadyLorraine - 04/04/2012 11:18:36 PM 307 Views

coming from a veterinary viewpoint, this emphasis on even having insurance is unnecessary LadyLorraine - 05/04/2012 01:01:27 AM 306 Views
