LETTER: NY Health Act would save billions, David F. Lehmann, Auburn Citizen

"GOP health care divisions multiply as Trump pressures Senate" (The Citizen website, 7/10/17) reveals the ruling party's backup plan is to simply repeal the Affordable Care Act or continue throwing money at a wasteful system that is unaffordable for millions.

The only plan that would save money and control costs would be an improved and expanded Medicare for all system. Billions would be saved by using Medicare, which has 2 percent administrative costs as compared to 12 percent by private insurance. Not to mention the profits private insurance take to deny care.
