Health Care from the Bottom Up

Why I do not expect My Democratic and Republican Presidential Candidates to realize the Thinking of an American Layman, I do know that we are all bound by the Common Knowledge and Common Sense of Man. So why I will respect the need for the Insurance Companies need to make a profit I do have to ask the question. Why would I be willing to spend $2,000.00 per year just to have the privilege to have another Human give me at best an Educated Guess and charge me a Co-Pay?

 No, in My Opinion the Health Care in America does not promote health, but represents a series of test to see if the Medical Staff can find out if you need to see a Doctor instead of the Hometown Doctor the Youth of the 60’s and Silver Spoons of the 70’s grew up with. So I wonder in all the Health Care Reform talk of this Election Debate could both of you agree that America needs AMA to find a way for us patients that know how to show the Doctors and their Staff what is wrong with our bodies get paid for teaching?

 Wishful thinking I know, but the fact that everything from Emergency Rooms to the way that an Individual can have an intelligent conversation with the Medical Staff needs to be on the table. And why I realize that AMA and other groups may not like the idea and the programs that need to be fixed, I do believe that a Reasonable Way exists to make Americans healthy and still provide the Urgent and Emergency Services needed by the Citizens and Communities of Society. So please when you talk about Every American needing to have Health Insurance. Don’t forget that the objective is to keep Our Citizen healthy and not penalize them for needing to talk to a Medical Professional about a problem that may or may not need a Doctors Personal Attention.

 For why Band-Aids and home-made remedies have done our Grandparents and Parents good for thousands of years on many aliments I do know that the 60’s and 70’s proved that many was worse than the sickness trying to be cured. Nevertheless, having spent some time myself in the local library looking up my own problems I can see the day when a patient can use their personal computer to have a daily check up. Yes, Americas’ Medical Staff should be thanked; however give me the Self-Knowledge to set down with a 10 year Nurse or a PA to see if the Doctor can do anything for me within the Law and I do believe that within a generation the Children of the 21^st Century will show their Parents many things that none of us have every even thought about. And something tells me that a Data Base like that could do nothing, but enhance the Learned and Unlearned of Society the understanding sought by “We the People.”

 Yes, unfortunately I still see the need for hospitals, nursing homes, and other community needs in the future. However, as an American Layman I would like to see Health Insurance not only based on affordability, but the Self-Sufficient Spirit of America.
