Fix What's Broken In Health Care Opinion Piece
The piece argues health care is unevenly provided with Americans seeking cheaper options abroad. It cites New England Journal of Medicine data on doctors sending patients outside the US and Canada for unavailable treatments, notes Canadian costs hidden in taxes, and discusses aging therapies and a planned Mexico longevity clinic offering HGH at $3500 for three months. It critiques FDA scrutiny and suggests cross-border care is becoming inevitable.
