Scott Keller on Health Care

Encourage non-profit hospitals
Non-profit hospitals should be encouraged. The end game solution for Health Care is that we need to develop our local communities and operate social services out of those communities.
The Federal Government and even States Governments will always be ill equipped to deal meaningfully with personal human issues.

More funding for health coverage, but change model
Q: What is your opinion on the statement, "More federal funding for health coverage"?A: Support. I believe that before any funding is sent to the health care industry, the conflict of interest needs to be removed from the equation.
As long as doctors and medical research organizations and pharmaceutical companies and so on are dependent upon people being sick in order to earn a living, the health of the patient will be at odds with the health professional's income.
New reverse-compensation models, local compensation models, and other innovative approaches to ensuring the above professionals are taken care of while encouraging
them to permanently heal the patients and keep them healthy need to be implemented.
