WK2 DISCUSSION2 HP-214

**Managed Care and the Cost of Healthcare**

Last week we talked about healthcare reforms being partially motivated by the cost of health care. This week we are focusing on some of the managed care options from which patients may choose to help mitigate some of the costs of health care. These managed care options do help lower the cost for most insured patients. But, is it enough, and what about our patients who do not have health insurance? There are increased discussions among politicians and the public about taking a bigger step toward fixing our healthcare system; Medicare for All.  After you have viewed this week’s 2 videos and read the supplemental reading #2 about hospital billing:

Express your views about the possible need for “Medicare for All”.

Include the following aspects in the discussion:

· What Medicare for All, as presented by Bernie Sanders, would look like? (Sen. Sanders is being picked solely for simplifying the assignment, not because he is the best or even the best candidate.)

· Discuss the pros and cons of Medicare for All.

·
What is your opinion about the viability of a single-payer option?
