A Second Opinion
I was thinking the other day about a good way to determine what is best for the future of American healthcare. One thing that came to mind was; why not let the medical professionals vote on how they think they can provide the best care for the most people? Or allow them to give an estimate of the maximum number of patients they could effectively treat in a shift. This information would prove to be extremely helpful to lawmakers while they are trying to hammer out the specifics of this plan. Knowing the number of patients that could be treated in a day may lead to a slow dispersion of healthcare based on severity of injury until everyone’s needs have been met, if indeed socialized medicine is the best plan for the country. I believe that going to the people who must work with whatever system is implemented would be best because no one knows the application of the present plan and ideas proposed in future plans better than the people who work with it every day.

I think this is an excellent idea and one that I had not thought of in response to the debate over socialized medicine. I can relate it to my desire for the government to ask teachers what they think they should be teaching in schools and how effective is standardized testing on an individual basis. The only problem I could foresee is people either bloating the numbers or under-sizing them during the survey. It is unfortunate but people will always want to screw with the system for some personal benefit, but this problem is everywhere and therefore may not be so much of a problem in your plan.
