The Continued bombardment of the Democrats about, what I think is a manufactured Health Care crisis, doesn’t need a complete over haul. Lets fix whats broken, not what works. At the risk of sounding like a broken record, Canada,  England and third world countries come here to the United States because we have the finest health care in the world. Health Care is a privilege, not a Constitutional right. Health care coverage is an individual responsibility of each of us. It’s there if we want coverage. But, It’s not free. And it’s not Government Responsibility to provide it for us. Health care costs in my opinion are high because of the constant, invention of new procedures, medicine and technology. What’s broken is the liability coverage doctors have to pay to ward off potential law suits. In some instances it is upwards of $200,00o. While there are always a bad apple in the bunch, such as there is in the Medical field, all Doctors are not neglectful, I’m sorry to say I know a neglectful doctor when I see one, I experienced it first hand, just before and during my mothers death.

Folks, Doctors are not God. They are mortal men. The only one who can provide divine intervention on a life threatening illness, is the Lord himself. In According to his will , not ours.

I’m not disputing the fact that it is devastating to families, when procedures, treatments and medical personnel goes wrong. But each and every incident does not warrant a frivolous lawsuit.

Each of these lawsuits, push liability coverage the doctors carry ever higher, resulting in trickle down to us, the patient. We nee to start with tort reform. Below is a description of what tort actually is. Next I believe we need to open the competitiveness in Health Care Coverage market across the United States. For instance, If I live in Pa and I want a particular health insurance that’s only available in Ohio, lets have the option to buy it there . We do not need a total overhaul of Health Care reform. Our Health care coverage is already in place, let’s tweak what we have!

Stay alert and please watch for the ever changing language in health care.

Tort reform refers to proposed changes in the civil justice system that would reduce tort litigation or damages. Tort is a system for compensating wrongs and harm done by one party to another’s person, property or other protected interests (e.g. reputation, under libel and slander laws). Tort reform advocates focus on personal injury in particular. Accident compensation procedures, compensation, and reform proposals vary greatly among jurisdictions, with a general upwards trend in compensation.

In the United States tort reform is a contentious political issue. US tort reform advocates propose, among other things, procedural limits on the ability to file claims, and capping the awards of damages. According to Forbes reporter Daniel Fisher, “A catchall phrase for legislative measures designed to make it harder for individuals to sue businesses, tort reform has long been a pet project of Republicans.”

In Commonwealth countries there are proposals to replace tort compensation with a social security framework that serves victims without respect to cause. In 1972 New Zealand introduced the first universal no-fault insurance scheme for all accident victims, which provides benefit from the government run Accident Compensation Corporation without respect to negligence. Its goal is to achieve equality of compensation, while reducing costs of litigation. In the 1970s Australia^[2 and the United Kingdom drew up proposals for similar no-fault schemes,^[3 that were later abandoned.
