The government can build a building, buy some medical equipment, train up some doctors and nurses, and open a second clinic in that town that charges nothing. Then your minimum wage earner doesn't have to worry about being able to afford the care.You mean, like the state health dept in town where my kids get all of their immunizations and checkups? The state dept in town that would coordinate any care my children needed (excluding emergency services.....for that I'd have to drive into a close -bigger- town where they have an ER with whom they already arranged provisions for treatment in advance - close -as in- a mile, course...I guess I could just call for an ambulance too, eh?). I did have to drive a couple of hours to get care for my daughters nerve damage and paralysis, also arranged for by the state (but free of cost anyway - St Judes/Shriners/UK Med is where it's at).
Quote:The private clinic would need to reduce its cost and increase its quality to stay competitive. Some private clinics would go out of business as government clinics opened up......but not all would.-and yet, state health depts don't seem to have put private clinics out of business or pushed them into a competitive stance.
