And, you know, maybe is there ways that you would, are there some simple ideas that you could present? I want to get on to other things too with you, but how about some ideas about how to fix what's broken in the healthcare system?

So one of at the end of the day, a lot of what we're going to have to fix what's broken is aside from just, you know, Medicare for all.

One of the key problems that we have now is that insurance specifically keeps us from actually knowing what the cost on certain things is.

Even speaking as a clinician and as a provider, the actual cost for different services that we provide, I can't really even tell you what the hard cost is now that I'm under a different medical system.

Back when we were independent, I could tell you that a standard nuclear scan, if you wanted to pay for it out of pocket to... $250 for a standard nuclear treadmill.

But now when you involve the cost of insurance, we have no idea where it goes because in a lot of cases, insurance will also inflate different costs.

And we will also see insurance play a game where they will specifically try to draw things out over months of time just to try and get a cheaper price for them.

And if it is about affordability, what are the things that you're saying to them, especially from your standpoint, about what you could do to make life a little bit more affordable in this state here in Iowa?
