Why Are American Health Care Costs So High

Why Are American Health Care Costs So High
Good morning Hank, it's Tuesday. I want to
talk today about why healthcare costs in the United States are so phenomenally, fascinatingly
expensive, but first I have to blow your mind: Alright, so you've probably heard that the
reason that people enjoy "free" healthcare in Australia and the UK and Canada, etc, etc
is that they pay higher taxes. That money then goes into a big pot and is used to pay
for people's healthcare, but in fact, in the US, we spend more tax money per capita on
healthcare than Germany, Australia, the UK, or Canada. That's right Hank: you pay more in taxes for
healthcare than you would if you were British, and in exchange for those taxes, you get no
healthcare.

In fact, only about 28% of Americans get their
health insurance through government funded programs, mostly poor people, old people,
and Congresspeople. But as you can see in this graph our private healthcare spending
(most Americans are privately insured through their employers) is WAY higher than anywhere
else in the world. In total, the US currently spends about 18% of its gross
domestic product on healthcare costs. Australia by comparison? 9%.

Why is this? Well because everything costs
more, which seems obvious, but apparently isn't, because every article you read is like
"Oh it's because of malpractice insurance" or "it's because we're obese" or we go to
the doctor too much or people are prescribed too many medications. Well, not really. It's because everything costs more. A hip
replacement in Belgium costs $13,000.

In the US it's often over $100,000. Colonoscopies
average over $1100 a piece in the US; in Switzerland they're $655. And on average a month of the
drug Lipitor will cost you $124 if you live in the US. If you live in New Zealand? $7.

Now we are alsonot to bragricher than
all of these countries, so it makes sense that we should spend a little more on healthcare.
But we don't spend a little more. We spend a ton more. And vitally, we don't get anything
for that money, which means we are essentially paying people to dig holes and then fill those
holes back up. Like we don't live longerin fact we're 33rd in life expectancyand in
everything from asthma to cancer, according to one recent nonpartisan study, American healthcare
outcomes are "not notably superior." So why are we spending all of this money for
nothing? Well first, let's discuss some of the problems that are not actually problems.

For instance, the problem is not so-called
"overutilization:" the idea that Americans go to the doctor more and get more tests and
spend more time in hospitals. We know this because Americans actually go to the doctor
less than Europeans and spend much less time in hospitals, although to be fair, you can
stay in a Dutch hospital for seven nights for what it costs to stay in an American hospital
for one night, so no wonder we're hesitant. Also it is not because we're sicker than other
people. Everyone likes to blame obesity on our rising healthcare costs, but yeah, no.
That argument is just not supported by data.

For one thing, disease prevalence does not
affect healthcare costs that much. And for another thing, while we do have more obesity
in the United States, which sometimes leads to health problems, we have fewer smokers
and less alcohol consumption (really? Apparently yes). So that saves us a little money, and
if you compare us to like the British or the French, in the end it's probably a wash. Hank, the truth, as usual, is complex.

Like,
there are obvious inefficiencies in our healthcare system. For instance, not everyone has insurance.
If you don't have insurance, you still get healthcare, but you're responsible for paying
for that healthcare, which often you can't do, so you end up going bankrupt. That sucks
for you, obviously, because you're bankrupt, but it also sucks for the rest of us because
we have to pay not only for your care, but also for all the money the hospital spent
trying to get you to pay for your care. Also the only options available to uninsured people
are usually the most expensive options, like emergency rooms, which is just BANANAS.

But those
inefficiencies are hard to measure. Fortunately, there are things we can measure. So like I said before, because the US is one
of the richest countries in the world, you would expect us to pay a little more for healthcare
than most people. The question is, when do we pay MORE than you would expect us to pay,
and that turns out to be pretty interesting.

Let's start with malpractice and so-called
"defensive medicine." The idea here is that doctors are scared of huge malpractice suits
so they order a lot of unnecessary tests in order to, like, cover their butts. That
does contribute to our healthcare costs, like there are more MRI and CT scans in the US
than anywhere else. However, there are a bunch of states like Texas that have passed tort
reform to limit malpractice suits, and in those states healthcare costs have dropped
by an average of a whopping 0.1%. The biggest estimates for the total costs of defensive
medicine put it at around 55 billion dollars, which is a lot of money, but only 2% of our total
healthcare costs.

Another smallish factor: doctors (and to a
lesser extent, nurses) are paid more in the US than they are in other countries, and by
my possibly-faulty math we end up spending about 75 billion dollars more than you would
expect us to there. And then we have the cost of insurance and
administration costs, like paperwork and marketing and negotiating prices. That's about 90 billion
dollars more than you would expect us to spend. We spend about $100 billion more than you
would expect on drugs, not so much because we take MORE of them, but because the ones
we take cost more per pill.

Okay, and now for the big one. I'm gonna lump
inpatient and outpatient care together, because in the US we do a lot of things as outpatient
procedures, like gallbladder surgeries, that are often inpatient procedures in other hospitals.
We're just gonna make a big ball [gestures]. That big ball is $500 billion more than what
you would expect given the size of our economy. Per year.

Why? Because in the United States we do not negotiate
as aggressively as other countries do with healthcare providers and drug manufacturers
and medical device makers. So like in the UK the government goes out to all the people
who make artificial hips and says "One of you is going to get to make a crapton of fake
hips for everybody who is covered by the NHS. Here in the United Kingdom. But you better
make sure your hips are safe, and you better make sure that they are cheap, because otherwise
we're going to give our business to a different company." And then all the fake hip companies
are motivated to offer really low prices because it's a really huge contract.

Like think if
your company got to put hips inside of everyone in England and Scotland and Wales
and Northern Ireland (I guess not everyone. Just the people who need hips). But in the US we don't have any of that centralized
negotiation, so we don't have as much leverage. The only big exception is Medicare, the government-funded
healthcare for old people, which, not coincidentally, always gets the lowest prices.

So basically, Hank, in the United States,
providers charge whatever they think they can get away with, and they can get away with
a lot, because it's really difficult to put a price on, like, not dying. This is a phenomenon
called "inelastic demand," like if you tell me that this drug will save my life costs
$7 a month, I will pay you $7 a month for it. If you tell me that it costs $124 a month,
I will find a way to find $124 a month to pay for it. You can't negotiate effectively
on your own behalf for healthcare services because you NEED them.

And not like you need
a Macbook Air or the new season of Sherlock, but actual, physical need (I guess it is like
the new season of Sherlock). So basically, Hank, until and unless we can
negotiate as effectively with the people providing healthcare as Australians and British people
do, US healthcare costs will continue to rise faster than anywhere else in the world and
we WON'T get better healthcare outcomes. Hank, I know this video is long, although
it could have been much longer, but I am so tired of people offering up simple explanations
for what's wrong with our healthcare system. They say "Oh, it's malpractice," or "it's
doctors who must also be businesspeople" or "it's insurance companies" or "it's insane
rules for who can GET insurance." It's drug companies, it's government bureaucracy, it's
an inability to negotiate prices.

Yes, yes, yes, yes, and YES! It is all of those things
and more! It is not a simple problem, there will not be a simple solution, but it is probably
the biggest single drag on the American economy and it's vital that we grapple with it meaningfully
instead of just treating healthcare costs as political theatre. So I hope I've at least introduced the complexity
of the problem. I've put some thoroughly nonpartisan links in the doobly-doo for further reading.
Hank, welcome back to the United States. As you can see, everything is peachy here.

I'll
see you on Friday. Friendly reminder, educational videos are allowed to be more than four minutes long. All of the people who are commenting about how punished I am did not watch to the end of the video.
I feel dizzy..

Where Can I Get Affordable Health Insurance if I Have Diabetes

Where Can I Get Affordable Health Insurance if I Have Diabetes
Hello, I am Ty Mason of thediabetescouncil.Com,
researcher, writer and I have type 2 diabetes. I want to emphasize that my perspective is
coming from one with Type 2 and not Type 1. Our channel is primarily for those with Type
2 Diabetes and PreDiabetes. Today I want to talk about health insurance
for those with diabetes.

After you watch the video today, I invite
you check out the description box for my new ebook. This is one of the most comprehensive diabetes
meal planning book you can find. It contains diabetes friendly meals/recipes,
recipes for different goals such as 800-1800 calories per day meal plan, diabetes meal
planning tips and tricks. There are also tons of diabetes friendly recipes
for everyone! Diabetes is primarily a self-managed disease.

In order to stay healthy, a person with diabetes
needs supplies like test strips, meters and insulin. Adequate and affordable health insurance is
important for people with diabetes to help them access the supplies, medications, education
and health care to manage their diabetes and prevent, or treat, complications. In the past, obtaining health insurance could
be difficult for people with diabetes, however recent reforms improve access to coverage. The 2010 Affordable Care Act was passed in
hopes it would give more Americans access to better health insurance at a reasonable
price.

As of the date of this video, the law is collapsing
with many insurers dropping out of the exchange leaving many with no real choice for health
insurance. The Obama Care is currently in the process
of being repealed and replaced by the new administration. I say this, not as a political statement,
but to say this is a fluid situation and the information I give to you from my research
is subject to change very quickly. Depending on the state in which you live and
the where in that state, you have the ability to purchase health insurance regardless of
the fact that you diabetes.

For many this is the most affordable option. However, some with diabetes may also qualify
for government assistance programs such as MediCare of MediCaid. My first suggestion would be for you to visit
your local social security office or visit medicare.Org
Many pharmaceutical companies also offer help on medications through discount prescription
plans that are often free of charge. If you do not qualify for government assistance,
your best option is to visit your states insurance exchange website.

This is usually found at your states insurance
dept website. You can also google your states insurance
exchange website. I know I am assuming that those of you watching
are residents of the US, other countries have different methods of insurance including government
run insurance. Health Insurance is a big topic these days.

It is sad that some people have to choose
between needed medication and making a car payment. At times, it seems the insurance premiums
cost more than the benefits. I feel your pain if you have to make those
tough decisions. I encourage you to seek out help from the
makers of your medications or testing supplies.

Quite often they can be very helpful. Dont forget to get my new ebook and please,
subscribe to our channel for many more videos like this one in the future. Thanks for watching. I am Ty Mason..

What does the EPO, PPO, HMO, POS stand for in HEALTH INSURANCE What is network provider

What does the
Welcome back to my channel Lets Talk Money. Today I would like to explain the network
types most commonly known as EPOs, PPOs, HMOs and POS plans. Some plan types allow you to use almost any
doctor or health care facility. Others limit your choices or charge you more
if you use providers outside their network.

You can easily identify the type of plan by
looking at the description next to the plan name. Lets look at each network type.  Preferred Provider Organization (PPO):
PPOs give you the choice of getting care from innetwork or out-of-network providers. You pay less if you use providers that belong
to the plans network.

Youll pay more if you use doctors, providers,
and hospitals outside of the network, and you may have higher out-of-pocket costs for
services. If you have a PPO plan, you can visit any
doctor without getting  a referral.  Exclusive Provider Organization (EPO):
A managed care plan where services are covered only if you use doctors, specialists, or hospitals
in the plans network (except in an emergency). No referral is required to see a specialist  
Point of Service (POS): A type of plan where you pay less if you use doctors, hospitals,
and other health care providers that belong to the plans network.

POS plans require you to get a referral from
your primary care doctor in order to see  a specialist.  Health Maintenance Organization (HMO):
A type of health insurance plan that usually limits coverage to care from doctors who work
for or contract with the HMO. An HMO generally wont cover or has limited
coverage for out-of-network care except in an emergency. If you use a doctor or facility that isnt
in the HMOs network, you may have to pay the full cost of the services you get.

HMO members usually have a primary care doctor
and must get referrals to see specialists. Weve been talking so much about provider
networks, SO what is that? Well, a provider network is a list of the
doctors, other health care providers, and hospitals that a plan has contracted with
to provide medical care to its members. These providers are called network providers
or in-network providers. A provider that hasnt contracted with the
plan is called an out-of-network provider.

Why I Don't Have Health Insurance
Why I Don't Have Health Insurance

When married it gave the affect a professional thought to have neatly-being coverage plan, mainly as my 3 little toddlers were born and rates were lined. But things went awry when one required a minor operation on the age of 3 years to faultless an umbilical hernia. The last discontinue result is that during its role of going throughout the stomach button things out so it was once no immense deal. When offered to the insurer for price, even although, they used one excuse after the several now not to pay the rates.

This grew to changed into me off and from that day to this I haven't had coverage plan. It seems, even although, that I don't want it. In Australia we have got Medicare, which covers everyone for it doesn't matter what want they've got got to peer a doctor or go into sanatorium. When it was once first added everyone was once utterly lined nevertheless due to the years this has been eroded to partial duvet.

But my case is determination again. Following my reincarnation and with a prevailing link to the Spirit of the Universe, the precise God, it commissioned me to do surprising things. As proof of this I asked for restoration of my sinus, a  I had from the age of 3 years. It was once mechanically long gone. When it advised me to exhibit up my job on the age of 45 years and paintings only for it the Spirit also advised me that every phase may only neatly also be offered.

Over the following many determination years correct here is precisely what has occurred to the amazement of those that recognize me optimum.

What a Single Payer Health Insurance Plan Looks Like

What a Single
PAUL JAY: Welcome to The Real News Network.
I'm Paul Jay in Baltimore. The debate about health care is continuing.
Supreme Court has found what people call Obamacare constitutional. It will come into full force
in 2014. But proponents of what's called single-payer health care or government-run health insurance
plans are continuing to fight, and the evidence seems to be on their side.

Those countries
that have government health insurance plans, people live longer and the cost of the health
care is less. Now the fight in the United States seems to be moving to the state level,
because there doesn't seem to be much that's going to happen at the national level, at
least in the foreseeable future. And one of those states is Maryland. And a recent study
looks at what would single-payer health care look like in the state of Maryland.

And now joining us is the author of that study,
Gerald Friedman. He's a professor of economics at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst,
and he did this study for Health Care for All Maryland. Thanks for joining us, Gerald. GERALD FRIEDMAN: Thank you for having me.

JAY: So before we dig into some of your research,
just sort of give us the bigger picture of why this would make sense for Maryland. FRIEDMAN: Well, the big picture is that health
insurance provided by competing private companies is inherently inefficient and destructive
of people's health. I mean, that's a strong statement, but I think it is well founded. The problem with private health insurance
is that it's not like selling shoes.

If you're a shoe company, you want to sell more shoes,
you want to make a better quality shoe at a better price to attract more business. Health
insurers don't want more business. They want to get rid of sick people. Eighty percent
of your costs as a health insurer are incurred for about 20 percent of your people.

You know,
in some places it's 90-10--90 percent of your costs go to 10 percent of the people. If you
can find those people, identify those people, and figure out a way to get them to go away,
go to a different company, then you will be in a position to lower your prices and increase
your profits. That is what health insurers try to do. JAY: Let me interject for a second.

There
kind of is that in Maryland, is there not, where the state actually takes people that
a lot of the private insurance companies don't want and puts them through this Maryland plan. FRIEDMAN: Yes, exactly, exactly. One aspect
of--the president's law, Obamacare, the Affordable Care Act, has provisions to try to restrict
this behavior by companies. Until those provisions, the ban on preexisting conditions, until that
kicks in, states have been subsidized from the federal government to set up these care
pools for special insurance for people who can't get insurance otherwise.

Overall throughout the United States about
100 million people have some condition that an insurance company would look twice at or
three times at before giving you insurance. Certainly if you've ever had cancer, insurance
companies don't want you. If you have HIV, insurance companies don't want you. If you
have an obsessive-compulsive disorder, a history of chronic depression, if you're overweight,
if you have heart disease, if you have high blood pressure--.

JAY: Or if you're pregnant. FRIEDMAN: Or if you're pregnant, that's right,
or if you're pregnant, insurance companies don't want you. JAY: Unless they already have you. Like, if
you haven't been insured--and I happen to know this through personal experience recently--if
you haven't been insured, you can't go out and get new insurance if you're pregnant,
except through this pool that the state creates.

So isn't this some form of indirect subsidy
to the insurance companies? Like, we'll take the most serious conditions, publicly finance
them one way or the other, and you can keep your pool nice and profitable. FRIEDMAN: Exactly. Exactly. The high-risk
pool is a subsidy to the insurance companies during this interregnum until 2014 when the
whole law kicks in, and then they are supposed to take everybody.

But in fact they'll still
find ways. They'll--the fastest-growing cost center in American health care is administration
of the health insurance industry. That has risen in cost eightfold since the 1970s. And
that--if you compare the United States and Canada, two-thirds of the extra increase in
cost for health care in the United States is accounted for by rising administrative
burden in the United States compared to Canada.

JAY: Now, I know in one of the papers you
wrote, there's a cartoon, and it's kind of ironic, that one of the arguments against
a government insurance plan is it would be too bureaucratic. But the facts don't lead
you there, do they? FRIEDMAN: No, they don't. They don't. Just
to give you the raw number, the cost of administering the existing Medicare system, the traditional
fee-for-service Medicare, is 2 percent--that is, $0.98 Out of every dollar that goes into
Medicare goes out to pay for services, health care services.

By contrast, the mandate in
the Affordable Care Act is that insurance companies get up to 80 percent. So the health insurance industry admits that
it is ten times less efficient than Medicare. They have ten times as high an administrative
burden in the private insurance system. And the reason they do that is not because they
like to waste money; it's that they use their bureaucratic apparatus to screen out sick
people.

They make it hard for you, they try to identify you, they try to scare you away
from procedures that you need, in the hope that you will leave after a while. JAY: I'll give it a--I can give a--now let
me just explain the parameters of all of this interview we're doing for our viewers. We're
going to do a series one after the other where we're going to dig into this proposal for
Maryland and talk about this health care issue. So this is part one.

And I won't know how
many parts it is until we get to the end. I'll give you one example recently. We've
just had two little twins, and they're in the neonatal unit, and the decision to move
them from the neonatal unit to a lesser-care facility is essentially going to be made by
the insurance companies. The insurance companies have people that are micromanaging these files,
and they're looking at exact--studying individual care of people and then deciding what the
next step should be.

I mean, they won't fight it based on a hospital saying the hospital
must keep the kid here, but they've created the criteria when the kid should move, not
the hospitals. FRIEDMAN: Yeah, yeah, as if they have a license
to practice medicine. I mean, this is standard practice in America these days, that health
insurers are practicing medicine, they're dictating which drugs are approved on their
list, so that if your doctor wants to prescribe a different--give you a different prescription,
well, sure they can prescribe, but the insurance company won't necessarily cover it. They say,
no, you should take this other drug.

They want to prescribe how long you're going to
stay in the hospital, which second opinion, which specialist opinions are needed, which
procedures are appropriate. I mean, this is all done by insurance companies. JAY: And let me add, 'cause people that watch
The Real News know I'm a dual citizen, and I still get health care in Canada as well,
and you don't get the micromanaging that--like this in the Ontario health care system, for
example. There's very broad parameters that are established by the insurance system, but
then all the decisions are really made by doctors after that, not, you know, getting
phone calls from the insurance company.

FRIEDMAN: And we see the difference. The United
States and Canada had about the same life expectancy in 1971 when Medicare, Canada's
health insurance, was enacted. You know, about the same life expectancy, and we were both
paying about 7.5 Percent of our gross domestic product to pay for health care. So we have
very similar situations.

Now, since then, Canada has added 6.5 Years
of life expectancy, compared to five years of life expectancy added in the United States.
So Canadians now live longer than people in United States, a year longer, and Canada's
expenses have gone up to 10 percent of gross domestic product while we've gone up to 17
percent. So we're spending a lot lot more to get less
than Canada's doing. The difference is the cost of administering these health insurance
companies, all those people supervising the doctors, and all the time that the doctors
have to spend dealing with the health insurers. JAY: So I'm going to jump in.

So we're going
to pick this up in part two of this series of interviews and we're going to dig into
this proposal for Maryland and just see where these cost savings would be and compare what
a single-payer plan in Maryland would look like compared to the existing for-profit insurance
plans. So join us for the next in this series of interviews with Gerald Friedman on The
Real News Network..
