Boris, I believe I answered your question in my last post:

the quality of care will get worse. Reimbursement woes will worsen

In addition to being held hostage to insurance companies, citizens will also be shackled to the IRS and the US government who have direct access to their bank accounts (since the insured "grant" them that right by entering into a contract).

But more to your specific question - since so many patients have to pay out of pocket, they will have less money to pay cash for ADR. And if anything, reimbursement rates will likely go down instead of up. I hope I am wrong on that one.

I started this post in 2007:

Did you ever read it? I don't believe patients here would dismiss these medical tragedies as politics. This suffering is caused by politics.
