Fixing US Health Care Inflation Industry Analysis (28)The US health care crisis was discussed in my previous video (#27). This video is about fixing the health care runaway inflation, which is in fact the heart of the problem. The following shows how to address the different causes of the inflation.New TechnologyUnlike the hi-tech industry where a new technology always brings down the price, the opposite is true when a company invents a new drug or testing equipment. The obvious reason is the five-year patent, which allows the company to charge a high price necessary for recovering the development costs. When the patent period expires and the generic products start to compete, the price may not come down because the company continues to market or hype its new brand for saving your life. The consumers do not have the expertise to question them and tend to accept what they say.An easy solution is to mandate all health care companies to publish their prices online to let the consumers compare. This will inject competition into the market. When a big price difference is shown to the public, the company charging a high price will try to mark down in order to compete. The key is transparency that will make the health care industry more competitive.Powerful Lobby Many legislators do not have the backbones to face the powerful lobbyists. They pass laws that favor the drug companies and other special interest groups. A concerted effort is required for the public, supported by employer, labor and other associations to counter the lobbyists. Remember the public has the votes to kick out any legislator who kowtows to special interests. Aggressive Lawyers and Defensive DoctorsTrial lawyers like the present situation to continue because there is no limit to compensation awarded due to medical malpractice or drugs that do permanent damage. This results in an uncertain business environment where the malpractice insurance for doctors skyrockets, thus contributing to the cost inflation. A law must be passed to limit the damage compensation to a reasonable amount so that doctors can operate without constant fear of being sued for exorbitant sums. This fear makes doctors extra defensive causing them to order unnecessary lab tests for the patient to guard against a lawsuit.Health InsuranceThe purpose of insurance is to cover for accidents or major events that do not occur everyday so that the insured are protected and the insurance companies can stay in business. Health care does not fit exactly into the regular insurance model, except for infrequent or catastrophic events such as pregnancy, cancer, heart attack, or traffic accidents. In these cases, health insurance can be less expensive and more affordable because of low occurrence of such events.However, another aspect of health care involves personal responsibility. What do you do when someone follows an unhealthy lifestyle that leads to frequent medical treatments? What do you do when someone often sees a doctor for the slightest body discomfort? If those people are required to pay for their own expenses each time, it will teach them a good lesson not to put extra strains on the entire health care system and push up its costs.Health insurance companies are no good in handling these two situations as described above. The result is higher premium for everybody, insuring only the healthier ones, complicated procedures, and refusal to pay without a valid reason. Even if the government takes over the insurance business, the problems will not go away. The key to solving this problem is more difficult including public education, personal responsibility, and disease prevention.BureaucracyThe streamlining of paperwork and bureaucracy in a huge industry like health care can always save billions of dollars. This is especially true if medical records are digitalized and centralized in secure databases. Fraud and CorruptionEvery year, the government has uncovered large sums of money wasted due to fraud or corruption. Tighter enforcement will further cut down this waste.Individual Health AccountsMany experts advocate individual saving accounts for health care. This has little effect on the runaway cost inflation. It merely opens doors for financial companies to tap into consumer savings. Remember the billions of dollars lost in 401k retirement plans in the 2008 financial meltdown? Consumers should beware of getting swindled for a second time.For further information, please email to stockfessor@comcast.net Author: stockfessor Keywords: stock market shares invest mutual fund retire industry analysis Added: December 26, 2008

A video by Atlanta artist Corey Barksdale protesting the fame and prestige of the Mona Lisa. This video is a response to the Youtube video Testing the Mona Lisa.http://www.coreybarksdale.com/FameHistorian Donald Sassoon cataloged the growth of the painting's fame. During the mid-1800s, Théophile Gautier and the Romantic poets were able to write about Mona Lisa as a femme fatale because Lisa was an ordinary person. Mona Lisa "...was an open text into which one could read what one wanted; probably because she was not a religious image; and, probably, because the literary gazers were mainly men who subjected her to an endless stream of male fantasies." During the 20th century, the painting was stolen, an object for mass reproduction, merchandising, lampooning and speculation, and was reproduced in "300 paintings and 2,000 advertisements".[30] The subject was described as deaf, in mourning,[31] toothless, a "highly-paid tart", various people's lover, a reflection of the artist's neuroses, and a victim of syphilis, infection, paralysis, palsy, cholesterol or a toothache.[30] Scholarly as well as amateur speculation assigned Lisa's name to at least four different paintings[32] and the sitter's identity to at least ten different people.[33]Crowd in front of Mona Lisa at the Louvre. Visitors generally spend about 15 seconds viewing the Mona Lisa.Crowd in front of Mona Lisa at the Louvre. Visitors generally spend about 15 seconds viewing the Mona Lisa.[34]Until the 20th century, Mona Lisa was one among many and certainly not the "most famous painting"[35] in the world as it is termed today. Among works in the Louvre, in 1852 its market value was 90,000 francs compared to works by Raphael valued at up to 600,000 francs. In 1878, the Baedeker guide called it "the most celebrated work of Leonardo in the Louvre". Between 1851 and 1880, artists who visited the Louvre copied Mona Lisa roughly half as many times as certain works by Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, Antonio da Correggio, Paolo Veronese, Titian, Jean-Baptiste Greuze and Pierre Paul Prud'hon.[30]Prior to the 1962--1963 tour, the painting was assessed for insurance purposes at $100 . According to the Guinness Book of Records, this makes the Mona Lisa the most valuable painting ever insured. As an expensive painting, it has only recently been surpassed (in terms of actual dollar price) by three other paintings, the Adele Bloch-Bauer I by Gustav Klimt, which was sold for $135 million (£73 million), the Woman III by Willem de Kooning sold for $137.5 million in November of 2006, and most recently No. 5, 1948 by Jackson Pollock sold for a record $140 million on November 2, 2006. Although these figures are greater than that which the Mona Lisa was insured for, the comparison does not account for the change in prices due to inflation -- $100 million in 1962 is approximately $670 million in 2006 when adjusted for inflation using the US Consumer Price Index.[36]Speculation about the painting Main article: Speculation about Mona LisaAlthough the sitter has traditionally been identified as Lisa de Giocondo, a lack of definitive evidence has long fueled alternative theories, including the possibility that Leonardo used his own likeness. However, on January 14, 2008, German academics of Heidelberg University made public a finding that corroborates the traditional identification: dated notes scribbled into the margins of a book by its owner on October 1503 established Lisa de Giocondo as the model for the painting.[37]Other aspects of the painting which have been subject to speculative ideas are the original size of the painting, whether there were other versions of it, and various explanations for how the effect of an enigmatic smile was achieved.In a National Geographic presentation titled "Testing The Mona Lisa" it was deduced after rigorous assessment, the possibility that the figure depicted in the painting, may be maternal, or pregnant. It was found after extensive infrared reflectography, Lisa herself had a haze around her clothing indictative of a guarnello, the attire worn by pregnant women. Another theory proposed by various health professionals was that Leonardo's represenation of her hands as slightly 'large' was further indicative of Lisa's pregnancy. However, on the obverse, as many scholars or persons suggest, this representation is merely a stylistic concept of beauty encapsulated by numerous Renaissance painters, including Leonardo himself.

"The Pap smear and the MechanicOnce, my officer manager commented, "Why do these women get all dressed up for a routine Pap smear?" Adult medicine is very complex and a significant googol of married females have sexual dysfunction associated with pain or else vaginal symptoms. Men usually sense that women appetite sex blameless as oftentimes as they do, "twice a day if doable!" If a woman has two children, works outside the hangout, the last thing she may necessity is "sex." Women are oftentimes forced to spawn excuses, equivalent "I don't feel well; I have a headache." Men repeatedly react by threatening such women with "I am going to look for someone else woman." A jealous husband may say, "Are you saving yourself for addition man?" In one extreme case, as soon as he got habitation, a husband would examine his wife's vagina to cause unequivocal no farther man "had entered her."In my manner, there were no routine Pap smears. After the examination, the visits would spiral into psychiatric consultations. Routinely, the latter quantum of the see would take up to one hour as the women oftentimes expressed a maelstrom of personal conflicts and children obstacles.The Mechanic's wife was no exception. After the exam, the patient would get her usual dose of psychotherapy. The Mechanic took heed on how his wife would come hospital unusually happy after her Pap research at my office. He began to feel that perhaps his wife and I were up to something 'sexual." Once we met, her husband became my patient and stopped thinking something so silly.I stopped performing pap smears over it was tour consuming (the psychotherapy component) and there were too innumerable false positive results.

Women should apprehend that post-coital bleeding (bleeding after intercourse) can be an ominous badge. Cervical cancer is infrequent and about 3,500 to 4,000 die yearly in the United States. A patient I treated died whereas the Pap smear she had all along her pregnancy seven elderliness before seeing me was inadequate. It had no ENDOCERVICAL cells.

If you have an HMO, the lab may be paid so little that I regularly do not trust such reports.When I stopped exploit Pap smears, women were disappointed subsistence they only "trusted me." In fact, it was the psychotherapy they wanted. Patients deserve about thirty minutes all along these apparently "superficial" visits.In June 2006, the FDA approved Gardasil, vaccine for human papilloma virus (HPV). Merck is promoting that vaccine, which costs about $400 and is hoping to frame it a mandate. That is, Merck wants government or a third party to pay on your behalf for the up priced vaccine.
