That sounds all well and good Hap but I have my doubts that costs would ever drop to any great degree regardless of how the system was manipulated. There are just too many people and companies in the industry trying to maximize their profits. Again this isn't about some lab tech or doctor making big coin.
As for restricting a patients ability to sue we both know that whatever scheme is enacted it will soon be used to limit damage payments to people who really do deserve that large financial judgment. Like that guy up here awhile back that had the wrong leg amputated for instance.
