But the biggest problem in healthcare costs is that medicare will not pay its fair share so the balance gets laid off on the rest of the population. Further, there is little cost resistance at the patient level because of the one size fits all approach to medical coverage. If each family shopped for its own insurance or other plan price resistance would be introduced. I learned when I was no longer under employer-provided life, health and disability insurance that I could get plans better suited to my family - full selection of physicians for instance - and paid less in every instance.
