The problems with US healthcare seem fairly well known. But I want to know what sorts of solutions are promising. I don't think single payer is right for the US, it's much too anti-American. I also don't think a free-market free-for-all would work...medicine is way too stacked against the customer. Obamacare, while seriously flawed, is probably still a step in the right direction. Would getting employers out of the business help? I keep hearing about insurance company inability to compete across state lines. What else?
I think the cap on the MLR is probably the single best thing in Obamacare. It seems to shift incentives in a meaningful way. This just addresses incentives for the insurance companies, though, not doctors...
