I agree, there should be no limited liability for for-profit healthcare organizations.
And non-profit health care orgs should have strict regulation, and the state should appoint some of the members of the board.
- JumpCrisscross 1y ago> there should be no limited liability for for-profit healthcare organizations Any. If you ringfence it to for-profit companies you'll just wind up with non-profits either siphoning profits away or exorbitantly compensating their leadership.
- lokar 1y agoThat’s why all high revenue non-profits should have some board seats appointed by the state, and state audits, etc.
- JumpCrisscross 1y ago> all high revenue non-profits should have some board seats appointed by the state, and state audits, etc. Why would you want to politicise every non-profit like this?
- lokar 1y agoIt can be done fairly neutrally In CA, put a professor of medicine and one from a mgmt school from the UC system on the boards of the to 10 medical systems. Let the regents pick the person, etc
- BrenBarn 1y agoJust hard-cap compensation.

- lokar 1y agoThey do it every day. Many (most?) doctors work in partnerships. And they have insurance.
- whimsicalism 1y agoNo, only a small proportion (less than a quarter) work in partnerships and a large driver of the decrease is the American liability environment. But sure, doctors in some specialties choose to take the gamble that the liability doesn’t exceed their insurance limits. But such a gamble would be extremely risky for a system or hospital employing hundreds of caregivers.

- giardini 1y agoMy goal is to eliminate all non-profits. That is, I want them taxed!
- whimsicalism 1y agomost large providers already are, it is no panacea. imposing further costs on the provisioning of care only means less care in the equilibrium
- Der_Einzige 1y ago1. Force Americans to take GLP-1s en mass to get objective health care costs down (most are cus we are fat as fuck) 2. Destroy the APA and reform medical training in america. Doctors shortages are primarily the fault of professional organizations. Doctors in the USA are massively overpaid compared to the rest of the world. Use US power to force the free world to imitate us so that capital has nowhere else to fly to and is forced to stay here. 3. Do something to basically destroy scam wastes of medical dollars and insurance dollars like homeopathy, naturopathic, etc It won’t fix everything, but it’ll do a lot to help.
