Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused many unnecessary and largely preventable deaths in the United States (U.S) and missed steps to prevent and control the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated significant U.S. healthcare system failures. These failures come on top of glaring and massive pre-existing U.S. healthcare system failures. To address these failures a bill to create critical changes and improvements to the U.S. healthcare system would likely be an option at this time.
Benefits of a new healthcare system would include medical experts supervising and managing a brand-new healthcare system, policies ensuring healthcare coverage, optimal healthcare based on world-class standards, expert-led management of pandemics such as COVID-19, comfort care transitions based on objective trends and ethics consults to save trillions of dollars for end-of-life care, and benefits in all other fields.
One of the first COVID-19 bills "Coronavirus Preparedness and Response Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2020" took a mere three days from introduction in Congress to becoming signed into law. Given the state of the U.S. healthcare system it would be optimal for a bill with critical changes and improvements to the U.S. healthcare system to be passed and signed into law within a similar timeframe.
