Editor's note: Health insurance helps many people. Hoover, it can be a sure way to waste money for patients. Remember that many diagnostic procedures and treatments are not justified and they are used simply to make money for some businesses and individuals. The money comes from taxpayers, either businesses or individuals. For many people, the health care bill could be a burden. At this time, each person in the United States spends about $7,700 on health care, but its healthcare ranking is not in the top 30 list. Soon one in every 5 dollars in this country will be used for healthcare.
