It is hardly surprising that an industry that consumes nearly one in every five dollars spent in the U.S. economy has loomed over our politics. Its only competition in the last few decades was the nuclear standoff with the Soviet Union during the Cold War. It will be prominent again in 2016 and beyond. This book will guide you through the fusillade of charges, and promises, you will hear in political campaigns about health care and "reform." They will occur now that the fiscal calamity of Boomer retirement is no longer a threat: it is here. For all the attention Social Security receives, Medicare is the truly scary entitlement program, with unfunded liabilities many times larger. This book also offers a powerful tool of reform. The Health Insurance Revenue Bond (HIRB) is a new and completely self-liquidating financing approach that fully funds escalating liabilities such as health care-- without deficits. If you can't bend the curve on health costs, bend the curve on the cost of funding. The HIRB program can assist governments in developed nations to begin the long and painful process of deleveraging. 000934711 588__ $$aTitle from PDF title page (viewed on August 5, 2016). 000934711 650_0 $$aHealth care reform$$xEconomic aspects$$zUnited States. 000934711 650_0 $$aMedical policy$$xEconomic aspects$$zUnited States. 000934711 650_0 $$aMedical care, Cost of$$zUnited States. 000934711 650_2 $$aHealth Care Reform$$xeconomics$$zUnited States. 000934711 650_2 $$aHealth Policy$$xeconomics$$zUnited States. 000934711 650_2 $$aHealth Care Costs$$zUnited States. 000934711 653__ $$a2016 campaign 000934711 653__ $$aACA 000934711 653__ $$aAffordable Care Act 000934711 653__ $$abending the cost curve 000934711 653__ $$abond 000934711 653__ $$adeficit 000934711 653__ $$adeleveraging 000934711 653__ $$afinancing 000934711 653__ $$ahealth care 000934711 653__ $$ahealth finance 000934711 653__ $$ahealth policy 000934711 653__ $$ahealth reform 000934711 653__ $$ahealth security 000934711 653__ $$aHIRB 000934711 653__ $$ainflation 000934711 653__ $$aliabilities 000934711 653__ $$aMedicaid 000934711 653__ $$amedical inflation 000934711 653__ $$aMedicare 000934711 653__ $$amunicipal bond 000934711 653__ $$aOPEBs 000934711 653__ $$aother post employment benefits 000934711 653__ $$apensions 000934711 653__ $$apolitics 000934711 653__ $$apost retirement benefits 000934711 653__ $$apresidential campaign 000934711 653__ $$arevenue bond 000934711 653__ $$astates 000934711 655_0 $$aElectronic books 000934711 7001_ $$aMiller, Randy S.,$$eauthor. 000934711 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9781631575464 000934711 830_0 $$aEconomics collection.$$x2163-7628 000934711 852__ $$bebk 000934711 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete $$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=4612326$$zOnline Access 000934711 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:934711$$pGLOBAL_SET 000934711 980__ $$aBIB 000934711 980__ $$aEBOOK 000934711 982__ $$aEbook 000934711 983__ $$aOnline
