David Redick on Health Care Republican Senate Challenger

Federally mandated health services just raise costs

Dave suggests a four-point plan:
1. Federal catastrophic insurance;
2. higher co-pays on Medicare and Medicaid to give incentive to avoid unhealthy life styles and non-essential visits to the doctor,
3. reduce costs by greater use of Medical Assistants so a doctor's time is not wasted on routine work the assistant can perform, and
4. bring the lower price and higher quality benefits of competition, and consumer choice into health care.

Institute federal catastrophic health insurance

More consumer choice in health care
