"Everyone agrees that healthcare in this country is in crisis, that it is unaffordable and unavailable to a large segment of the American population. Suggested solutions range from adopting a universal healthcare plan to lowering malpractice rates. But according to Rick Jackson, Chairman and CEO of Jackson Healthcare, these are not solutions, they are merely band aids to treat the symptoms. The true problem, says Jackson, can be defined in two words – insurance companies. And Jackson's provocative new proposal to resolve the healthcare crisis also involves insurance companies – eliminating them. According to Jackson, insurance companies no longer provide value. "They need to be replaced with a more efficient system that significantly reduces unnecessary costs, passing those savings on to employers and patients," says Jackson. "The new system must return physicians to the practice and control of medicine," he adds, "while reinstating the relationship between doctors and their patients." And Jackson's bold new alternative plan, a national healthcare reimbursement system (HRS), would do just that." jacksonhealthcare.com
