Health Insurance

Well, being Epileptic sucks for many reasons.  But the major one is that if I want to be treated appropriately, and compliant with doctors prescriptions, I'm run high (to me) in medical expenses.

Thus far I've spent $1,800 for doctors and medications, add into that the approximate $900 in health insurance payments.  Pain in the rear is what this is, and it seems expensive. 

However, in perspective it's not a bad deal.  To bad health care used to be affordable, efficient, and effective.  The primary question is where the flaws are generated.  I have a biased perspective being the son of a doctor.

I do feel the problems really do stem from the 1.  Health insurance companies,
2.  Pharmaceutical companies, 
3.  Attorneys that chase ambulances
4.  Doctors who are profit motivated
5.  Medical schools that don't teach doctors to be doctors anymore.

In essence I hold the government fully responsible for issues 1-3, but I like to isolate the targets first.

I do believe Barack can overcome this, and will focus energies and finances appropriately.  Here's hoping things go the right way, from my perspective.
