"To Cut Healthcare Costs, Let's Start With the Secret Prices
When a colonoscopy ranges from $450 to $10,000, there's room for plenty of savings"

Remember that the secret prices come partially as a result of the government system that controls medicare and medicaid. These are the government mandates.

Doctors must comply with the Government mandates while looking at how they are going to pay for office staff, nursing staff, coding specialists-------accountants, lawyers for possible mal practice ad nauseum----cleaning staff---supplies.

Then there are the multiple layers of medical care-----the doctors office, the outpatient clinics, the emergency rooms, the hospitals, the rehab centers------and ultimately the trash heap. And, of course the specialization.

This is where Obama made his big mistake---------not coming to the American people to hear their constructive ideas on the medical system rather acting as though he has all of the answers.

Congress should once again reject the current legislation and demand a year moratorium on the Federal Governments consideration of the medical system permitting the citizens to tell not their "sob stories" but their constructive ideas.
