Im going to plan an relatively quick endgame for myself in healthcare. 10 year time horizon. And im telling my kids to go into finance.

exactly. The ACA will not last much longer I assume, and the the system will move toward more regulation and government control, unfortunately.

Bro ai will wipe out most of finance. At least medicine while lower paying will still exist.

It's really much simpler than a lot of the circle jerking going on in this thread.

Should health insurance companies be able to discriminate based on pre-existing conditions? If yes, continue pass go and develop your ideal capitalistic healthcare system.

If no, then you must develop single payer healthcare.

Not allowing insurance companies to risk stratify the people they insure (literally the foundational business model of any insurance company) ensures they provide little to no value but increase costs. You will have the worst of both systems. Which is what we have. Worse healthcare than most first world countries yet we pay twice as much per capita.

The majority of the voting public wants pre existing conditions covered. That's your answer.

Why is tobacco use the only “risk” question to charge more ?? That’s the only risk stratification where they can charge me.

It’s the most idiotic policy of the ACA marketplace. So people who drink too much don’t get charged more?!! People who have too many body count partners don’t get charged more?? That’s risk for std and long term medical problems.

AI isn’t as good as people think. It’s like us telling everyone anesthesia is easy. Yes it’s easy 98-% of days. Than it’s not easy the 2% or even 1% of days.

I dont think AI will be quite as transformative as people think. AI is more of a tool than a replacement.
