Are you still trying to win an argument that people get preventative MRIs?  Let me just inform you that a routine mammogram is not an MRI.

Good Lord would you just stop already.

Why won’t you just explain it?

You know what a mammogram does.  Why do you need me to explain it to you?  Why can't you just act like a sane adult?

It’s often a preventative measure that gives a look inside the body. An MRI does the same thing.  An MRI can also be used as a preventative measure. TDS is detectable by your retarded posts.

MRIs are not recommended for preventative medicine for healthy adults.  Trump did not get a preventative MRI.  Ask any doctor, they will tell you.

There is something wrong with Trump that they are not telling you.

Uninsured people and the administrative costs of private / for profit insurance is driving up HC costs. The only long-term option is single payer HC. 

There's a lot of things driving up health care costs. 

Just think of the cost to run these operations

But yes it's a problem. It's not as easy as "let's make it more affordable". How??

ObamaCare did exactly what Obama wanted it to do.  And that was to f it up so badly, we have no choice but to go government medical.

No it didn't. Obama made the critical error of attempting to involve the R's in his signature piece of legislation, to which they raised a collective middle finger. In fact, the individual mandate was based on Republican framework created in response to Hillary Clinton's attempts to overhaul healthcare in Clinton's first term. At that time, even Newt Gingrich supported it. 

But then Obama Satan got it pushed through, and suddenly all the R's were allergic to their own plan.

Single payer HC. The consumer no longer needs to pay for the insurer’s marketing, profit margin, administrative costs etc. Hospitals no longer pass the costs of uninsured ER visits on to the consumer. Medical providers no longer need a fleet of billing specialists to deal with dozens of insurers and all their inconsistent requirements. The government negotiated on prices on behalf of the consumer. And people are no longer stuck in jobs for the sake of maintaining HC. I bet a lot more people would open small businesses if their HC wasn’t tied to their employer.

If there’s another way to lower prices I’m all for it.

Not sure either. Perhaps more options? 

It's going to be a abused regardless, I'm not sure how you combat it. I'm not complaining because mine is paid for 100% but I have Family members who are dealing with it now to. 

For the younger healthier ones, it's probably cheaper out of pocket.

Another way, is still clean up the fraud, and scams, and the corruption in medical, this would reduce it, no one should spread a couple of days in a hospital bed, for health, issues and have their insurance pay 500 for a plastic bed pan.  Same with government, America doesn’t need a new president, Americans need to have the medical and government drain.

Can’t fix the problem with this current government and medical administration in place, that’s why it keeps getting more expensive, the plan.

Yea, I agree that was the plan all along.  It literally destroyed private insurance.
