Would Single-Payer National Health Insurance Break The Bank?
Would Single-Payer National Health Insurance Break The Bank?
A common myth among opponents of single-payer national health insurance (NHI) is that it would cost too much and break the bank.This belief is based in part upon an assumption that patients would overuse health care if they gained access to it without any cost-sharing when they seek care.Cost-sharing has been a lynchpin of consumer-directed health care (CDHC) since the early 1990s, which assumes that patients who have more "skin in the game" -- through deductibles, co-payments, and other out-of-pocket costs -- will make more prudent decisions about their own health care.

Public Option Would Fix Health Insurance Marketplace

Public Option Would Fix Health Insurance MarketplacePhoto Credit: James Palinsad / FlickrLast week's announcement by Aetna that it would stop selling health insurance in 11 of the 15 states where it offers coverage through public exchanges is not a death blow to the Affordable Care Act, but it's certainly not good news for President Obama's signature health-care law.Aetna maintained it was losing hundreds of millions of dollars on the health law's marketplaces, and the company is one of more than a dozen major insurers that have announced plans to bail out of the exchanges.The failure of the marketplaces to generate robust competition, as Obama had predicted, should focus liberal attention on what many on the left now regard as a major policy objective: establishing a public option for the health insurance exchanges.
