If your auto insurance included new tires, oil changes and gasoline, imagine what would happen to the price of both auto insurance and gasoline? They'd both skyrocket. So why the hell are we doing it with healthcare? Insurance is about sharing risk and a large part of the cost isn't sharing the risk it is about pre-paying for normal, expected ailments and when consumers become insensitive to cost prices are bound to rise.
The healthcare industry is greatly in need of cost sensitivity and transparency.
- mjmahone17 14y agoWhat about healthcare insurance includes the cost of "gasoline"? In my knowledge, healthcare insurance doesn't cover food or water (besides, maybe, hospital food while you're in the hospital), and I really don't get the analogy.
