I agree that our government does fk up most everything it touches. But with the percentage of people we have who depend 100% on it for their healthcare (I didn’t even include the VA and tricare in my above post, only medicare/medicaid/uninsured), i don’t see taking the government out of the equation as a viable solution. I hate to think that we as a country just suck and this is why we can’t have nice things.

That will become the standard.
The VA is a clusterf**k. I know because I moonlight there. I cringe everytime I look into a patient's chart. The most recent patient that I admitted there was admitted for hypertensive emergency (blood pressure that is really really high and causing problems) and saw that patient's blood pressure medications have been changed 5 times in the last 6 months because the patient has seen by different provider at each appointment for blood pressure. The VA is so bad that it can not figured out the simple task of scheduling a patient's follow-up appointment with the same provider.
