TOP TEN REASONS FOR A SINGLE-PAYER HEALTH CARE SYSTEM!
Number 10. Inclusive – everybody is in and nobody is left out.
Number 9. Continuous – coverage from conception to death without gaps.
Number 8. Quality – development of standards of care, better able to collect data for quality oversight, better communication, and more accountability.
Number 7. Coordination – unified health care system for coordinated allocation of resources, incentives to cover all areas of need and more cooperation among health facilities/providers.
Number 6. Simplicity – one payer means less paperwork, no time on the phone for authorization and more time with patients. Medical decisions are back in the hands of doctors and patients.
Number 5. Improved Health – more focus on preventative care and treatment in early phases of illness, better management of chronic diseases and greater incentives to address public health issues.
Number 4. Security – all needed medical, mental health, long term and dental care is covered without fear of financial ruin.
Number 3. Choice – patients choose doctor and health facility.
Number 2. Economical – saves money and cost to patients is known.
And the number 1 reason is... it’s Popular – a single payer health care system is the number one choice of the majority of doctors and patients!
