Yesterday, we had the honor of being at the White House as Rohit Chopra, director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), and Lael Brainard, director of the National Economic Council (NEC,) laid out important new steps the Biden administration, led by Vice President Harris, are taking to tackle the growing medical debt crisis in this country.
Are Biden and Harris actually going to talk about changing our horrible Private For Profit Healthcare System? I doubt it. No other country in the world has a healthcare system like the US has. Our healthcare system is a disgrace. I cannot imagine how I would feel if my family had to deal with $50,000 of medical debt.
As long as there is a financial incentive in the American healthcare system, there will be reasons to deny care and to profit from the sick.
We need a true Medicare for All system that insures everyone without taking money out of the patient's pocket. Even the traditional Medicare system has co pays, deductibles, etc. None of those patient expenses should be allowed.
This news in under-whelming. Address medical debt? We need NO medical debt as in other countries with single-payer universal healthcare. Enough is enough. Cut the crap and give the American people what they need.
I can solve this entire thing. Insurance companies only manage data. If you charge for managing data, say $10/month, and let the patient pay for his own risk, you can cut HALF from the cost of health insurance. Read the details here: https://sentiahealth.substack.com/
Everything but what's really needed—money and a crackdown on the insurance companies killing people for profit.

There should be no such thing as medical debt. We need single payer health insurance.
How about taking action to prevent medical debts?

That was a meeting about absolutely nothing they're just pandering for votes. And this writer is just advocating for Democrats
