If the federal government were to provide “healthcare for all”, would the Government then pick and choose what procedures would be allowed and not allowed? For instance: sex change over brain tumor operations; abortion over gallstone removal. 😳
Sad to say - they already do.
The government is the payout for over 60% of HC costs already (Medicare, Medicaid, VA, SCHIP) and regulates the insurance market (deciding DRG’s, drug costs, mandated coverages and procedures, and exclusions and carve outs ).
