German Healthcare Engineering

By any measure, the U.S. healthcare system is failing in its primary mission: to provide the overall population access to healthcare at a cost that does not bankrupt the nation.

We can argue about the details, but why, when an example of how a healthcare system should work already exists, in Germany?

Without going into too much detail, the German system is the best existing hybrid of public and private, without the rationing of care that exists in Canada and the UK, and at a reasonable cost. The efficient, German system costs the Germans 10.5% of their GDP, while our fractured, chaotic system cost the U.S. economy 17.9% of GDP in 2015, and is rising dramatically.

So, we should simply adapt the German system to the U.S. market with one primary interest in mind: the health and satisfaction of the U.S. healthcare consumer.
