The creation of a new Medicare Part E would bring all of Medicaid under the umbrella of the federal government and would immediately relieve states of an annual burden of $200 billion. This shift in funding could be financed through a small payroll tax, though the authors suggest that such a tax may be unnecessary, given the possibility that costs could be offset through more efficient practices and the negotiation of lower drug prices.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAmong other recommendations, the authors advocate for establishing a government program to ensure that retirees have long-term care insurance so they can afford nursing-home care if needed. They also call for the development of software to streamline the billing and payment process for insurance, thereby saving billions of dollars a year. The book concludes with many practical, well-thought-out suggestions detailing steps that will help Americans access the health care they need at a reasonable price.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rph Phd Donald Stansloski,Jd William E.
