Why is single payer better than multiple payers?

[Vox Moi]

3. Well … you need to back up a little.

It is important to know who that single payer is, but there are some things you can say in general.
- The single payer can negotiate even lower rates and those rates ail be consistent for all subscribers.
- The single payer has the health care medical and financial information on everyone, for life. This has immense advantages in:
- Long-term studies on risk factors, efficacy of care and continuity of care that is nearly impossible with multi-payers.
- Much better financial analysis cost/effectiveness studies, and comparative analysis among hospitals and other care-givers.
- The single payer can force standardization of best practices, safety and appropriateness and other systematic improvements in the process of care.
The single payer is dealing with people for life, not the term of a policy. that encourages the payer to look at its members as human beings and not episodes of care.
