Maybe a start would be to take the write off for advertising from drug companies and we will get rid of the TV ads as well Sparky Flavored Coffee Drinker Not sure what needs to be done but something has to happen or we will all be unable to afford health care.

Several insurance companies out there have morphed from covering a select group of individuals to pretty much anyone out there, and seem to do a pretty good job of it (e.g. efficient and low cost). The largest one that I can think of is GEICO (Government Employees Insurance Company). Also Electric Insurance (started out covering only GE employees). Is there an efficient health care insurance company with high customer satisfaction that could go from covering only the employees of one entity (e.g. GE employees or government employees) and offer group insurance to the public?
