There is no government system that can make choices for an individual as well as the individual can make their own choices. Some of the current ideas being suggested by candidates will make our health care system worse. We need to move away from the trend toward socialized medicine and instead increase consumer driven health care options.
Health care must be addressed on multiple levels at the same time. All analysis must take into account quality, cost and availability. And all decisions must successfully cover those three components.
Artificially imposed government obstructions to individual consumer choices have made health care more expensive while indirectly rationing its availability.
As a Congressman I will co-sponsor the "Comprehensive Health Care Reform Act", bill number H.R. 3343 as one measure to bring down the cost of health care.
