Single Payer Health Systems

Thanks for all that first hand experience info.

I had always just assumed that because healthcare is currently profit-driven, the complications in administration were just another deliberate way to promote "upselling", like when you simply want to purchase a specific channel on cable it becomes a rat's nest of various 'packages' all at different costs and always seem to lead to buyer's remorse somehow when they could just simply write a line of code so you get that channel and charge you a price for it.

It still amazes me that the healthcare industry has such a hard time at costing and billing logistics. We've had accountants in our midsts for quite a few hundred years now and you would think this type of thing could be dealt with so much more efficiently.

I guess that's why I suspect it's all part of some kind of profit-squeezing charade.
