It certainly can't fix high drug cost, high practice costs, and lawsuits.
The company I use to work for paid roughly 3 million in health care to Blue Cross Blue Shield and 7 people in the company were responsible for 70% of the medical pay out cost. Needless to say BCBS raised our cost the next year. Point is fixing the health care system is hell of a challenge. A very difficult one at that but I refuse to be so cynical and believe it can't be solved.

You're speaking out of turn when you start talking about my employer and what they receive from the University or the state, or whoever.
TUHS received no funding from Temple University last year. NONE.
The university supports the medical school, which is not a part of Temple University Health System.
Can this problem be solved? Maybe. But not without TONS of pain, time, and money. Obama underestimates all of it, and drastically.
