Episode Description
Judge Jim Gray and his guest Dr. Clarke Smith, M.D. openly and fully discuss how our nation's healthcare system used to be, and how it is now. Previously, our healthcare was superior and far less expensive than it is today, but as government has become more and more involved costs have risen and service has become more limited. In fact, if we want to have our healthcare needs to be addressed by the equivalent of the departments of motor vehicles, that is where we are going. Instead, we should bring back competition and individual decision-making by again making us partners in our own healthcare needs. And this can be done by utilizing Medical Savings Accounts for those who can afford their own care without government involvement. And for those who need some financial assistance, government vouchers can be provided, based upon a sliding scale, which can be used to purchase private health insurance, and even pay some of the deductibles. So stay tuned, help is on the way! .
