After decades, the dialogue on the health and the health sector reform with the now infamous Harry and Louise ads, in the field of health insurance is in the race for control of the conversation in the table of the reform of health care. Today, the United States in health insurance (AHIP), the industry adopted by the association, has a "new" proposal for a reform. But there is always the same line. You have a large number of these proposals.

This tactic of delay of Health shows the industry is still very late on the reform of health policy. Numerous recommendations on how to do this decrease the cost of health services are already available, offer a public competition on an equal footing with the private systems, to make better use of technologies of information about health and the supplier to pay on the basis of Results are based on the number of procedures that they run the government negotiations with pharmaceutical companies to reduce prices for pharmaceuticals.
The option they most fear is an option for the insurance, which genuine competition in the statutory health insurance and the vendors of the markets. The data show that some private plans quasi-monopoly of power in most smaller and plans are in the shadow of the cost of maintaining the high prices and the leadership of their profits with contempt, the total for the healthcare needs of people with expensive conditions .
In addition, even the biggest insurers are reluctant or unable to fares with a leading provider of groups, the leadership of the other health-care costs. A public could interrupt this quasi-insurer and provider of monopolies to competition and the costs.
An advisory group only delay the action to kill. We need a real competition as soon as possible a system, the public interest to the public first.
