It seems that, based on our experience, we can all attest to the above reasons playing some part in the rising costs. Technology is expensive! This is a fresh topic for me, having needed to get an MRI a month ago. Think about the cost of MRI machines... according to comparemricost.com, the average MRI machine costs above $1 million dollars. I'm sure some of that cost got paid off by me. Inefficiencies?... perhaps. And prices?... definitely! But might I add malpractice insurance? It seems that suing is a fad these days! Although I don't have exact figures, I do know MDs pay a lot for insurance, which ends up reflected in health care costs. The more health care costs rise, the less available it'll be for families to obtain it, especially with money being scarce these days. In fact, with our economic crisis, a lot more of us will be thinking twice about going to the get that check-up.
