MEDICARE FOR ALL WOULD SAVE $450 BILLION ANNUALLY WHILE PREVENTING 68,000 DEATHS

[Guno צְבִי]

The analysis, conducted by researchers at Yale University, the University of Florida and the University of Maryland, found that transitioning the U.S. to a single-payer health care system would actually save an estimated $450 billion each year, with the average American family seeing about $2,400 in annual savings. The research, which was published Saturday in the medical journal The Lancet, also found that Medicare for all would prevent about 68,000 unnecessary deaths per year.

"Our study is actually conservative because it doesn't factor in the lives saved among underinsured Americans—which includes anyone who nominally has insurance but has postponed or foregone care because they couldn't afford the copays and deductibles," Alison Galvani, an author of the study and researcher at the Center for Infectious Disease Modeling and Analysis at the Yale School of Public Health, told Newsweek.

That's the same type of argument the idiots that supported Obamacare claimed.

You can't predict how many lives it will save. Even with the best of care, people still die.

I guess when you make baseless claims but it sounds good to the idiots that refuse to do for themselves, people will believe anything.

It would also save corporations/companies/employers a lot of money that they could put to other uses. They could continue to offer supplemental plans as hiring enticements, but they'd be off the hook to the tune of billions for employees' premium costs. We could raise their taxes slightly to cover the cost of insuring everyone, and they would still come out ahead.

how much would it save a person who now has employer provided health insurance?.......I've heard that some unions have decided not to endorse the Medicaid for all candidates because they would lose their Cadillac health care plans.....

Always about raising taxes to give someone something they're unwilling to provide themselves.

I control your actions. Prove it.

For me, not a dime. My premiums are part of my compensation. Does that mean I'd get $2400 cash?

Who in their right mind would be those that caused the problem can fix it. If they could fix it, they wouldn't have caused it.

4 minutes for Owl to prove I control her actions. I told her what to do and she immediately did it.

For some reason the dumb bitch otherwise.
