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.
This healthcare bill would include lots of benefits such as a new healthcare system after COVID-19 with the potential to raise trillions if not hundreds of trillions of dollars and millions if not hundreds of millions of jobs for the state of Massachusetts and the rest of the country through integrated healthcare technology which are benefits that will soon be lost as this healthcare bill is being taken off the table now.
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 the bill for improvements to the U.S. healthcare system must be sponsored, passed and signed into law as an emergency bill as is within a similar timeframe of three days or all benefits of this bill will be lost permanently.
