Ron Wright on Health Care

 

 


Health insurance across state lines, not from Washington

Q: It is the government's responsibility to be sure everyone has health insurance.

A: Strongly Disagree

Q: How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?

A: The decision making power to provide affordable healthcare should reside less in Washington DC and more in the hands of the doctors who provide it. Empowering patients to make their own healthcare decisions and opening the purchase of insurance across state lines will begin the process of lowering healthcare costs across the board.
