Stop the Medical Debt Crisis and Pass Universal Healthcare

I am your constituent and I know we all deserve a healthcare system that works for all of us. A recent analysis by Kodiak Solutions of hospital billing at about 1/3 of US hospitals found that now the most unpaid hospital debt is carried by people WHO HAVE HEALTH INSURANCE (57.6%). Just a few years ago it was 11.1%. These are people who have health insurance and can’t afford the deductibles. Those insurance companies who saddled us with deductibles in the thousands of dollars are also eating up about 25% of the entire US healthcare budget in needless overhead and and claims adjudications. I strongly urge you to pass universal healthcare like, HR 3421, and end this madness. It will provide a system that covers all of us, cradle to grave, no copay or deductible and will save hundreds of billions EVERY YEAR, according to the Congressional Budget Office. Thank you.
