Fixing USA Healthcare v3. Obstructive payers, ridiculous drug companies and dangerous hospitals.

The United States healthcare system faces a dual crisis of unsustainable spending and suboptimal outcomes. Despite spending nearly one-fifth of its GDP—approximately $4.8 trillion in 2023—on healthcare, the U.S. ranks last among ten high-income nations in health equity, access, and outcomes. I propose a cogent, six-point reform strategy designed to restore systemic health by mandating universal participation, lowering the age of federal coverage, expanding the provider network, and drastically reducing administrative complexity. Discussed ACA, affordability crisis, drug prices, pharma benefit managers, expensive insurance options and needing to go without.
