Health Care for All California

Food 4 thought!

Best analogy of why we need a single payer universal healthcare system.

The CBO report discusses the potential impact of various models of a single payer system not only on the federal budget, but also on national health expenditures. In considering these theoretical changes, it is fully expected that assumptions may be made that are not shared by all in the policy community. In their Health Affairs blog, single payer experts Adam Gaffney, David Himmelstein and Steffie Woolhandler explain the deviations from more widely accepted single payer anal...yses and what impact these revised assumptions would have. Since we are more interested in an analysis of a preferred model of single payer Medicare for All, the 200 plus page CBO report should be read only in conjunction with the brief Health Affairs article. You will find that single payer is potentially even better than the favorable CBO analysis. https://www.healthaffairs.org///hblog20210210.190243/full/
