Why has it worked so well in europe, canada and 25+ other countries. The managerial cost of running the medicare program is 3%, while the managerial cost of running HMOs is 25-35%, Plus some asshole CEO gets millions to sit on his ass and cut care and increase co-pay. HMOs are the devils health care plan.
