| HR676 - The Single Payer Solution, Part 1 of 4 |
 |
The most important piece of legislation in
America today, with nearly 100 cosponsors in
the house, H.R.676 is the only health care
bill that will truly reform our tragically
broken health care system.
This is the bill that your insurance company
doesn't want you to know about. This is the
bill that presidential candidates (except
Kucinich) are afraid to talk about,
presumably because they like to keep getting
campaign contributions from the insurance
industry.
What would you think about a health care
system that actually works for everybody,
costs billions of dollars less, provides
greater coverage, truly protects you from
financial ruin due to medical bills, improves
quality, increases innovation, and returns
medical decisions to you and your doctor
instead of some claims adjuster at an
insurance company 1,000 miles away.
31 cents of every health care dollar spent is
wasted on administrative expenses and insurer
profits in the US system. This is why the US
spends double what other industialized
nations spend on health care yet has worse
outcomes. We need to save that money and
spend it on better health care for you, me,
and all Americans. Our system is sick and
dying, and this is the cure.
This footage was take primarily from
Congressional testimony given earlier in
2007.

Daniel Kessler and E. Richard Brown, Health
Advisors to the John McCain and Barack Obama
Presidential campaigns, respectively, discuss
why neither candidate supports a single-payer
insurance system for the United States.
-----
Health care is a major issue in the current
presidential campaign. Candidates Barack
Obama and John McCain have laid out very
different visions, and each believes his plan
is best for our nation's citizenry.
Come learn about each plan from the top
policy advisors of each candidate, and take
the opportunity to ask your own questions and
get answers - The Commonwealth Club of
California

and Designing Hospital Antitrust Policy to
Promote Social Welfare, which appeared in
Frontiers in Health Policy Research. He is
the holder of a Ph.D. in economics from the

Dr. E. Richard Brown is a professor at the
UCLA School of Public Health and the founder
and director of the UCLA Center for Health
Policy Research. He received his PhD in
sociology of education from the University of
California, Berkeley.
Dr. Brown has studied and written extensively
about a broad range of issues and policies
that affect the access of disadvantaged
populations to health care. His recent
research focuses on health insurance
coverage, the lack of coverage, and the
effects of public policies, managed care, and
market conditions on access to health
services, particularly for disadvantaged
populations, ethnic minorities, and
immigrants. Dr. Brown and the Center's
studies of health insurance coverage,
uninsurance, and eligibility for public
programs have been used by California's
governors, legislators, and advocates in
crafting health insurance legislation and
programs.
