How does the cost of Healthcare come down?

It should be obvious by now it's beyond broken. What can be done to fix the system? It is definitely not sustainable on the current path.

Notice, the more subsidized shite is where increases outpace inflation.
Cut government handouts.
Get ppl in better shape.
Cut Medicare Medicaid reimbursements.

Focus on prevention of serious illness. Encourage better eating and exercise habits.

Health insurance should only be for catastrophic events.
All other health spending needs to be cash based.
That will help control costs

When someone starts to seriously call bullshite on what is being charged.
Before health insurance hospitals/doctors had to charge what a regular person could afford. Now with health insurance it is an elaborate Ponzi scheme to charge whatever the frick they dream up because insurance will pay it.

Quit subsidizing fatness and reward healthy lifestyles more.
The guy with 3 speeding tickets pays more in insurance, why doesn’t the fat arse?

Truth be known, we have to get good with letting people die.
For most, more is spent in the last year of life on healthcare than all years prior.
You want to save money? Stop dropping a vent in 87 yr old grandma.

This is a big part. There's this ER room here that my wife went to because she wasn't feeling well. They made her take a catscan that they billed our insurance $20k for (which wasn't needed imo). Our neighbor had the exact same story there also.

If you need healthcare, find someone who offers healthcare, buy healthcare services, pay in cash.
You are paying 25 middle men for your healthcare.
Stop.

Another but more lethal bio-weapon. Along with continued easy access to drugs like Fentanyl. RFKJr’s ideas are good but depend on limiting undisciplined people’s access to unhealthy (think tasty) foods.
AI -assuming we can keep the handle on it - can and will change everything. For good and bad most likely as that is the principle for acquiring great power.

Perfect example. Legitimate questions about the billing:
- How long has that machine been paid off?
- What is the salary costs of the technicians?
- What is the lab space rent?
- What are the maintenance costs?
If that shite actually cost $20k for a 15 minute procedure we have bigger issues.
