health care

After women's and climate marches, we need a Medicare-for-All march. Get rid of our high cost system that places between patient and provider insurance companies with their marketing costs, compensation, and profits.

Medicare is an efficient system already in place. The expansion could be financed by a percentage to the taxes paid by all. This is better than having some insured provide the sums for all insured. To lower charges by providers, work on lowering cost of nursing and medical education and mandate  more provider efficiencies. We might also create a nationwide system of clinics that offer health care at a lower cost. Some of these might be government or charitable operations.
