HealthcareIf we insist on keeping our partially for-profit, corporate healthcare system, can we at least have some kind of universal record-keeping system? We have the technology, we have the capability. It would require insurance companies to spend a tiny bit of their huge profits and maybe cut into their CEO's bonuses, but it might save lives and make the whole experience less of a cluster fuck. Medicare is the largest, most efficient healthcare system in the country so medicare for all would solve this problem, but since people seem to be afraid of the government but trust huge, profit-mongering corporations, irrational as that seems to me, can we at least make these companies get their shit together? Maybe use a bit of the marketing budget to actually keep decent records and communicate with each other? Thanks. If I get shouted at by a doctor for what another doctor did not knowing any history, or have another doctor not read my Dad's chart before making a huge mistake and then becoming aggressive as an anti-malpractice tactic again I'm gonna go nuts. (That one I called and chewed out and got an actual apology from.) It is hard enough to see you parent slowly decline without the healthcare system screwing up all the time and then keeping you on hold for 75 minutes when you try to do their job and fix their mistakes.
