The case for Medicare for All

Sun, 09/14/2008 - 4:55pm — DCblogger

The time has come for universal health care

The only realistic solution to our growing health care crisis is HR 676, sponsored by Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., which extends Medicare coverage to every American.

Over time, this bill, if enacted into law, would actually lower health care costs by at least 50 percent while insuring every American has health care when they need it.

This is essentially the way health care is done in every other country in the world except the United States.

Under HR 676 there would be no restrictions on choice of doctor and no gatekeepers blocking access to needed care or denying payment. In the United States bankruptcies and unnecessary deaths are epidemic because this occurs.
