Yeah, there's no way to pick what MRI or ambulance service you choose to use. Got to go with whichever service is provided because the hospital needs you right now.RaceBannon said:

Cancer treatments I guess you could shop around. But a lot of the costs are from accidents and such where they need you in a hospital right now. You can't pick which ambulance, surgeon, etc. MRIs and other none emergency type stuff you could do. Prescription drugs you can look at prices but the stuff people actually need, like cancer drugs, are ridiculous expensive regardless.
Like I said, it will work in some ways but not to the tune of 75%.
This guys shills for Obamacare and suddenly questions numbers -
As always your avoiding the advertising of prices by the health care PROVIDER.2001400ex said:

Emergency services are not "a lot" of the cost. "A lot" of the cost with healthcare is due to obesity, heart disease, cancer, prescription drugs, and aging.
If emergency services caused by things like car accidents is the main driver, then let's ban cars. You're for banning everything else.

And those diseases you talk about, a lot of them turn into emergency type services such as a stroke. If you have a stroke or heart attack, do you have time to pick the cheapest provider? What about kidney stones? I'm not just talking car accidents. Come on man. Even cancer at times has emergency type procedures where you can't shop your care.greenblood said:2001400ex said:I think the 75% thing is bullshit.

You honestly think the single emergency visit is more expensive than years of prescription drugs, check ups, and scheduled procedures that came before that emergency. Not to mention the years of prescription drugs, check ups, and scheduled procedures that will follow if the poor sap happens to survive?2001400ex said:

Shilling
Hondo hates the idea because it's free market based and would actually work
Single payer won't -
There's already pricing known on prescription drugs. I didn't say it was the majority, I said it's a large part.greenblood said:

Drug prices vary wildly too depending on insurance. You can download an app and get a huge discount paying cash
None of it makes sense but let's regulate it some more and really fix it this time
