Here are some suggestions:
1) information on medical costs and processing costs compared to other treatments must be easily accessible, so that consumers are better educated health decisions.
2) results and results comparisons to other medical procedures should be more available so that consumers of health care can make more informed decisions.
3) Consumers should be more responsible for their health, health care treatment, research and the costs and results of certain choice of procedure to medical care.
4) countries and federal governments to end without guarantees transfer mandates that, especially in the cost of supply during the reduction of the total volume of access to health care.
5) Frivolous litigation and the threat of justice for serious effect, that doctors in the practice of defensive medicine, the chances of transfer. The examinations that result are often “Overkill” and just do nothing but increase costs for care.
6) Consumers need to ensure that their doctors know the most appropriate treatment. Drug companies have been successful in creating a demand for their products by convincing consumers to “ask your doctor …” We need to return again to discuss our problems with our doctors, instead of requesting a drug or treatment.
