Summary Blogs to Repair the Healthcare System

 

Stanley Feld M.D.,FACP,MACE

I am posting what I consider summary blogs. It would be difficult to read all the summaries in one sitting. I compiled this list for people who have just started following “Repairing the Healthcare System.” The links are intended to get you started and to be used as a reference.

The links below are my view of the policies that must be adopted to Repair the Healthcare System. The letters written to President-elect Obama and then President Obama were written when he promised that everything was on the table and he was open to all ideas. It is now clear to me that nothing was on the table. He will expand a government entitlement the country cannot afford and most people would not want. President Obama should be concentrating on the real problems in the healthcare system.

If you follow the links in each article you will understand my views on the policies needed to repair the healthcare system. I believe it can be repaired without enlarging unaffordable entitlements and the resultant increase in public debt. I have proposed specific policy changes that will enhance quality, improve coverage and decrease costs.
