Why? Healthcare costs continue to rise every year. Increasing pharmaceutical costs, technology improvements and wasteful procedures are costing the US more every year.

This increase in healthcare costs is starting to be felt by everyone. Some can’t afford it, while others struggle to keep up with their medical bills. Those of you who are younger might not understand now, but in 30 years when you need to go to the hospital in 2048 and you’re charged $200 dollars for a single Tylenol pill it might make sense. You might understand how ridiculous healthcare costs have become if we don’t start fixing problems now.
​
Why are healthcare costs continually going up?

There are really many reasons driving up medical costs. With many causes comes many solutions to improve the situation.
