Well-edited to give a coherent picture of the problems and solutions for medical care in the USA today.

Health savings accounts with 1/3 cost, high deductible health insurance, and extension into Medicare and Medicaid (with vouchers for the needey, as provided in Dr Price's Republican HR3400) would be good additions for the next round.

It's true, as expressed in the video, that government needs to get out of the way of medicine with the exception of prosecuting fraud. It is government that subsidizes pharmaceutical companies and medical device companies; it is government that creates fixed prices on medical procedures; it is government that prevents insurance to be sold across state lines; government needs to get out of the way. Government needs to get back within the confines of the Constitution, rather than trying to save us with the tyranny of good intentions.

Lastly, if WE THE PEOPLE had the monetary policy of gold and silver as mandated in the Constitution, a natural deflationary monetary environment would allow real savings, eliminate inflation, and empower WE THE PEOPLE with the purchasing power of our currency rather than the government with its federal reserve notes backed by nothing. Thus elderly people, who no doubt need health care services more than other populations, would be able to afford these services simply by their savings alone, without depleting their purchasing power.

There need to be a separation of medicine and state.

Thanks so much to the Drs. for speaking out for their patients. I do not want Big Brother in the room with my Dr. when a decision must be reached in regard to my well being.

Hi thank you for your perspective. I hope that you are able to work with the "ignorant people" because there are an awful lot of them who would like to obtain medical services but can't because of their "ignorance". This may be true. however, there are an awful lot of them who could really benefit from being able to afford health care. I can't say that what the Democrats are doing right now is perfect, but I feel that there is a greater concern here for the many people who are simply much poorer than you could imagine being with great amounts of challenges many of which you may have never seen. Many insurance companies pay physicians a lot of money. In fact the partnership is very strong, even some medical schools are actually built by pharmaceutical companies which are indelibly link to the insurance companies. I commend you for stepping out of the insurance system, but in a lot of ways, I think you have little sight for who this program is designed for. I understand and sympathize that it doesn't work for you. Simply for the sake of streamlining the whole operation, I hope that you guys can come into compromise with public health insurance. For the record, I do not own insurance and do not want to be forced to purchase it. I buy my care from a physician who does not participate in any insurance or government program. I hope that this can remain an option. This seems extremely viable. Good luck. I feel that you all bring an importance piece to the table.

Good Day

It is important for doctors to stand up with the American people and defend our freedom to choose our own U.S. Consumer medical services and medical insurance and stop trampling on the freedom and rights of the American people. It is unconstitutional and illegal for the federal government and President Obama to take over the health care industry and the health care insurance which are two separate free enterprise industries. ObamaCare will fine Americans, excessively tax people and or jail Americans up to five years if they fail to buy government health care insurance. This borders on extortion as it places fear in the minds of the American people to force them to buy U.S. Consumer products and services they may not want to buy with their own money or use those services but will be punished if they refuse to pay up - It's a pay up or else system - and that violates the laws of the land and state laws. Many people go to jail for attempting to force people to buy up or else in all other situations and is considered criminal. The only entity making money would be the federal government through the excessive fines; taxes; keeping the prisons full with good Americans and break up their families and cause them to lose their jobs and homes. They will be paying doctors less and rationing medicine and services. Of course, it would be a neutral debt program when people die because they can't get medical care, Rxs, or services. Doctors will be punished if they don't do as they are told - and possible work where they are told.

I do not want bureaucrats telling my Doctor what treatment he has to give me, after all he is the one that who burned his lids studying to get his Dr. License and the knowledge to take care of his patients, according with his knowledge and experience. Only a Dr. can do the right decision for his people in his care not politicians or bureaucrats, whose interest his political career, not for the patients or Health Care.

Wake up America, Speak up defend your rights for a true Health Care bill, not a bureaucrat's bill!

When I first learned it was against the law for me to pay additional money to my physician over the pittance he received from Medicare for treating me, I thought "how did we let something like that happen." That law right there is unconstitutional. But it is done, and we live with it. The senator from my state, Harry Reid, cares not a whit what the people think. He is determined to ram this bill through. We have accepted our entitlements far too long, and this is the price the piper demands. The fight should be on.

we are headed for destruction of our system. The current proposals concentrate on huge taxes on every american.DOCTORS ARE CURRENTLY PAYING HUGE PREMIUMS AND WILL TAKE EARLY RETIERMENT.WE NEED TO ENCOURAGE MORE DOCTORS BUT REDUCING THERE SALARIES AND TAXING THE REST OF THE POPULATION WILL REDUCE OUR CHANCES OF RECOVERING IN THIS ECONOMY.WE SHOULD SPEND OUR WAKING HOURS OF RIDDING POLITICIANS SUCH AS REID, PELOSI ALONG WITH MANY OTHERS.BARACK OBAMA IS A RADICAL LEFTIST AND WILL PUT THE FINAL NAIL IN THE COFFIN OF DESTROYING THIS COUNTRY.HE IS ANTI BUSINESS AND WILL EVENTUALLY CRUSH THE SMALL BUSINESS OWNER
SADDLY ENOUGH THE POLITICIAINS WILL NOT EVEN PARTICIPATE IN THE SAME PLAN,

we should have tort reform and allow insurance companies to compete across state lines.

It is my opinium as a patient and citizen of this great country that it is time for the entire Medical Industry
to stand togeather and inform this goverment in the clearest terms that they will not tolerate or obey the current legislation as written. They should clearly state that they are willing to pay any price to uphold their standings and that they have the support of their patients to carry them through. They should also establish a new committment as a partner in forming real true health reform from the begining. This reform should focus on the people it serves and not the corrupt single interest.

Obama serving as President feels he has the SOLE right to implement reparation without any concern to those being harmed by his decision. The 111th congress is not being responsible for their actions; they are too full of "hate". This Health Care Reform is the first major move towards SOCIALISM. Apathetical attitudes towards government for many years by the People have allowed corrupt Politicians to form a symbiotic relationship. Our only option is to vote CAREER politicians out of office.

I agree with the opinions expressed. I feel that we are in this position due to an ultra liberal monoply that has a strangle hold on the communications industry. If you do a bit of research you will discover that the three major networks also control the newspapers, magazines, entertainment shows, radio, everything. Two major corporations control all of this. They control most internet sites as well. This is how they are ramming this through congress. We will be paying an incredibly high price for the folly of ousting the Republican party from both the presidency and the congress. There is no balance of power in our government. i wonder how people who contract serious diseases will feel when they discover that government counsellors will advise them of their option to end their lives by consenting to being starved and or dehydrated to death. Do they know that their doctor will be penalized for treating them twice in the same year if their cancer recurs? Who will support the elderly if we use government money to abort babies with money stolen from medicare (another abomination). The unborn can't vote, but the retired can and do.

This is an absolutely excellent site that should be made very public / have you thought of just a quick commercial to advertise the web address. People need to see and hear these things but unfortunately most will never find the true websites. Anyway thanks for your time.

As stated above, this was a "well edited and produced" video. Where, however, were the people who cannot afford any health care. I did not hear one comment about the people who work hard every day just to survive. How about them? Oh that's right, the doctors above probablly don't have to deal with them because they cannot afford health insurance, which means they cannot afford to see the above doctors. It is nice to sit at our computers debating health care concerns because we have that luxury. What about the millions of people who do not have this option, nor do they get input into the process. Let's all be honest with ourselves, please. This whole debate is about money and who gets the most of it. Doctors don't want to give up their large incomes; Insurance CEO's don't want to give up their bonuses and Hospitals have to show a good bottom line to their investors. This issue has been turned into a government vs. non-government issue and that keeps us from looking at the REAL problem which is greed. With all the money involved, and everyone trying to get as much of it as they possbly can, health care is merely the generator of the cash. It is heart warming to see the nice doctors who care so much about their patients but let's stop the BS. The health of this nation is at stake and unless we look at what is really going on, versus the Right wing and Left wing extreme propaganda, we will all suffer. No that is not true, only the people who cannot afford to pay will suffer. I am tired of the self righteousness of this whole issue. This is not about some "thing" this is about human beings and about the quality of our society. Just think about it. If we could stop the the politics and make health care affordable for EVERY person in America, the amount of money coming into the pot would overflow and all the ravenous appetites for that money would be satiated. Do I have all the answers? Of course not. But until we start dealing with the truth of the matter, it will only get worse.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank YOU for speaking the truth !
