Mark Cuban sees a model for fixing health care
Mark Cuban sees a model for fixing health care - and he didn't find it in the United States Monday, 31 Jul 2017 | 8:09 AM ET | 00:35Billionaire Mark Cuban has proposed scrapping insurance companies from the U.S. health-care system and instead using federal funds to boost medical staff numbers and make care more widely accessible. If every person in our country had health insurance, would we be any healthier?" This would bring the U.S. system closer in line with the U.K.'s NHS or Australia's Medicare, which are largely state-funded. Single-payer health insurance refers to a system in which a single public body organizes health-care financing, but the delivery of care remains mostly in private hands. The U.K.'s NHS system, though widely commended, is not without its troubles, however, as it struggles to manage growing patient numbers with increasingly tight funding and falling staff numbers.
Trump threatened to end health care coverage for members of Congress. Can he?
Trump threatened to pull health care coverage for lawmakers if they don't pass a new bill quickly in a tweet on July 29, 2017. "If a new HealthCare Bill is not approved quickly, BAILOUTS for Insurance Companies and BAILOUTS for Members of Congress will end very soon!" If a new HealthCare Bill is not approved quickly, BAILOUTS for Insurance Companies and BAILOUTS for Members of Congress will end very soon! The exchanges are online marketplaces for health insurance designed to provide coverage to those not covered by employers, Medicaid or Medicare. Following repeated failed attempts to repeal Obamacare, President Donald Trump has turned to bashing not only the health care law and its architects but all members of Congress on Twitter.collected by :Lucy William
