OK, so recognizing the explicit rules against revealing my political thoughts on the legislation...
Who has some ideas (traditional or fastlane) for making money off of the changing healthcare environment?
My first thought is that those with means will have less access in the future than they do currently. With what's been passed and what is proposed and an aging population there is no way to make the math work without tightening restrictions on who can get certain procedures in the future.
So, if you are 80 and want a heart transplant and have the money to pay for it, you might have to look outside the system and engage in medical tourism. That's becoming a big industry in India and other places....
Thoughts?
