SINGLE PAYER’S ROAD TO HEALTH-CARE RATIONING

KEY POINTS

Making health care a “human right” means government has the “right” to tell you what health care you will and will not receive.

Because single payer will increase people’s use of health care, government will have to contain costs by limiting the supply of care provided.

Much lower pay will cause doctors to leave the profession, worsening the doctor shortages expected as Baby Boom physicians retire.

The House’s single-payer bill would provide hospitals a set budget every quarter, potentially forcing them to deny care to stay within their allocated budgets.

Many single-payer supporters, including President Obama, have spoken favorably about controlling access to costly treatments to save money.

In addition to limiting access to costly care, single payer will also allow for taxpayer funding of abortion at any time during a pregnancy and for any reason, undermining a culture of life nationwide.
