What are their policies on end of life care? About half of your lifetime medical expenses are spent in the last year. Add a government "death panel", a refusal to pay "unreasonable" efforts at delaying death (however the insurance company defines unreasonable), or even a society which accepts that life has come to an end and allows old people to die at home with family rather than attached to very expensive machines which go "ping" and you can drop national medical expenses. I don't like the idea of either a government or insurance bureaucrat deciding it is time for me to go, especially if they decide that they could save half by restricting medical care in the last year they could save even more by restricting it in the last five or ten years.
This rather strongly implies that a large amount of money was wasted, doesn't it?
