Akira 0 Posted October 14, 2004 rising lawsuits costs = higher health expenditure.I dont get it The logic being HMO's and doctors deal with the cost of lawsuit rewards which the cost of is then carried over to premium costs. Personally I don't know. My health care cost hasn't gone up, by my prescription costs has ranged from $50 to $145 for the same prescriptions in the last few months.

Akira 0 Posted October 14, 2004 Kerry is making a mistake by avoiding the cost question. For those that have governement controled healthcare: Do you have poor healthcare? Is there rationing? Is it the way Bush portrays? Neither of them ever talks about how they plan to finance the programs they are proposing. If I was moderating I would say "That's nice. How are you funding it?" and keep saying till I get an answer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
