The problem is that everyone seems to confuse the paying for health care with the actual providing of healthcare. There is a difference.

One of the biggest issues is that Medicare pays by procedure rather than based on patient or outcome.

There needs to be movement away from paying by procedure so that 1) Doctors don’t have any incentive to perform tests that aren’t needed. 2) Billing is simplified. 3) We remove the profit motive from paying for healthcare while retaining it in the actual delivery.
