@RoKhanna Medicare for all would also allow providers to have the complete pool of patients and not be negotiated down to providing services at rates so low they can't afford rent on their office space.
@RoKhanna Medicare for all would allow special needs families the option to not spend hours each week fighting the heinous f*ckery of the insurance companies (delaying reimbursement of claims, declaring treatments uncovered, losing paperwork, etc.)
@RoKhanna Medicare for all will eliminate the need to appeal by snail mail or send in claims by fax so that the health insurer can have plausible deniability that they never received the claim.
@RoKhanna Medicare for all will pay providers for the service, eliminate need for excess overhead on their part to deal with the heinous f*ckery of the insurance companies, eliminate the need for a whole industry with 100,000s of employees to work for something constructive.
@RoKhanna Medicare for all is a simple formula. Huge pool of payers pay providers. The current formula is this mobster of a middle man charges protection money to the patients and charges protection money to the providers and allows heath care to be administered sometimes.
@RoKhanna Single payer - provider, is simple. Multiple payers - cartel of evil insurance companies - trickle down to the providers while supporting a huge bureaucracy (much huger than any government bureaucracy) and lining the pockets of executives so they can bribe politicians.
@RoKhanna Medicare for all eliminates the need for an unnecessary middle man (health "insurance" company) to funnel profits to their executives who then buy politicians to insure that they can continue screwing over patients AND providers. Campaign contributions are the best ROI out there
@RoKhanna Unroll please @threadreaderapp
