Health Care, As It Should Be

Health care, as it should be, would be where you could see your doctor whenever you wanted, whenever you needed.

"Oh, I forgot to ask if the medication is what is making me dizzy." And off to the office you go, maybe not seeing the doctor, himself, but someone who can answer your question.

I don't know whether insurance plans do, but with health care, as it should be, they would not dictate how often you  see the doctor, nor how often you have tests performed. If it would be helpful to have an electrocardiogram every week, so be it.

And, in health care as it should be, all this would come without much of a bill.

It might sound like a little bit of a dream, but if we are to really take care of patients, this is the way it should be. As society advances, living conditions improve. This is a societal advancement, and I hope we reach it, soon.
