Fixing the dated U.S. health care system | StarTribune.com

Fixing the dated U.S. health care system | StarTribune.com:
This column doesn't really give us direction but it does focus on some key issues.  One, of course, is how much we in the U.S. spend compared to outcomes as compared to all other industrialized countries.  But, I want to highlight the point made in his first paragraph:  Insurance started during WWII as an employer connected benefit.  That experiment failed, hurts us patients, hurts the businesses and needs to be changed.  We need to divorce health insurance (AKA access to health care) from a job.
