Health insurance is sick insurance

By: Dr. Sten Ekberg

Health insurance was never about health. If we take a step back and look at the big picture maybe we can see that these changes are for the better. The health care system has never been about health and it is failing. Because drugs and surgery only treat symptoms and people get sicker and sicker. The system is crumbling under its own financial burden. This is an opportunity for us to be proactive and take steps to actually get healthy then health insurance becomes a non-issue.

If people took a fraction of what they spend on sick insurance and spent it on proactive health they would get many times better results at a lower cost.
