观点原文
你的全民医保(M4A, Medicare for All)计划有一些问题,Bernie(桑德斯)。目标是好的,但细节部分就没那么理想了。
- 一切都由美国卫生与公众服务部部长(HHS Secretary)自行决定,包括药品目录(drug formulary)和什么算是“医疗必需”(medical necessity)。——如果现在是这样运作的,你觉得会怎样?(第31页)
2. 任何医疗服务提供者都可以选择不参与计划,不接受 M4A 的资金,同时要求患者签字承诺不提交报销申请。(第27页)
这对顶级昂贵的医疗机构来说简直是梦想成真。——你越昂贵,就越开心能拒绝只按 Medicare 价格付费的患者。
3. 你真的打算每年都重新谈判所有药品的价格吗?(第53页)
- 你通过取消除补充保险(supplemental insurance)外的所有保险,实际上是在帮医疗提供方大忙。因为这样一来,医生和医院就能像现在一样——提供“分期付款”或融资服务,同时赚得更多,因为他们的行政开支更低。他们还可以先查病人的信用记录,从而降低风险。
5. 你说,选择退出 M4A 的医院只有在下列情况下才能与病人签约:
摘自第303(b)(1)(B)条款:
“该合同只能在患者面临紧急医疗状况时签署。”
这肯定是个笔误吧?
但同样的内容在 2023 年版法案里也出现了。
——这是校对错误,还是你真的在说:
任何选择退出的医生,只能与在急诊室里的病人签合同?
其中一些人可能还失去意识、或处于极度痛苦中。
这完全说不通。
- 其他所有实行全民医保的国家,
要么设有“家庭医生把关制”(gatekeeper system),
要么通过直接或间接收费机制让患者分担一定保费。
加拿大和英国正是用这种方式来控制医疗成本。
你的计划没有这点。
这可能会让你设定的预算彻底崩溃。
结语:
医疗确实是一项权利。
但如果你不考虑现实情况——
一个由少数大型公司主导、经济高度集中的医疗体系,
那你就无法真正让人们获得他们需要的医疗服务。

- 亿万富翁企业家、前达拉斯独行侠队老板马克·库班(Mark Cuban)分享了他对于商业成功、创业失败以及个人成长的深刻见解。以下是视频中的核心观点和内容: 1. 创业失败的头号原因 缺乏脑力与努力(Lack of Brains and Effort):库班认为大多数人失败是因为他们做得不够多、学得不够深。 竞争无处不在:创业并非处于真空状态,总会有竞争对手。如果你进入一个竞争环境,而对手比你更了解行业、更了解客户,那你必输无疑。 信息不对称是致命的:库班强调,你必须比任何人都更了解你的行业。如果你在竞争,而对方知道的比你多,他就会击败你。 2. 纪律、专注与技能匹配 天赋与纪律的结合:库班以德克·诺维茨基(Dirk Nowitzki)为例,指出虽然天赋很重要,但德克能够成功更多是源于他超人的纪律和专注力,去做那些成功所必须做的枯燥工作。 找到对的位置:了解自己的技能组合,并找到合适的行业去应用这些技能,然后全力以赴。 3. 始终保持危机感(健康的偏执) 24 小时竞争心态:你应该假定世界上正有人每天 24 小时不停地工作,试图夺走你所拥有的一切。 自我挑战:库班建议每位企业家都要思考:“如果我是竞争对手,我会如何击败我自己的公司?”在别人打败你之前,先找出自己的弱点。 4. 教育与“学习如何学习” 理解商业语言:库班坚决反对“大学无用论”。他认为会计、金融、市场营销和销售是商业的语言。如果你不懂会计,甚至无法通过财务报表与人沟通,你就已经落后了。 大学的核心价值:他在印第安纳大学学到的最重要的东西是“学习如何学习”。 持续学习:商业环境始终在变化。如果你停止吸收新信息,别人就会超越你。知识是你偏执感(危机感)的最大来源——如果别人知道的比你多,你就有麻烦了。 5. 如何评估一名创业者 准备工作是关键:库班通过提问来评估创业者。如果你问他一些本该通过调研就掌握的基础知识,他会立刻否定你。 提问体现深度:你提出的问题比你给出的答案更能体现你的水平。如果你问“我该怎么做”,这通常意味着你还没准备好。 6. 增长速度与执行力 从第一个客户开始:增长速度取决于你的产品和行业。关键是拿到第一张支票或第一个承诺,然后从中学习、迭代。 亲力亲为:库班回忆在刚买下独行侠队时,他亲自坐在办公桌前,照着电话簿给前季票持有者打电话。他认为领导者必须愿意去做那些基层的工作,不能因为有了钱就停止努力。 完美是利润的敌人:不要为了追求完美而延迟发布产品。核心是看客户是否愿意为你支付时间或金钱成本。 库班的核心信息非常明确:商业竞争是一场战争,唯一的护城河就是你比对手更努力的工作态度和更深厚的知识储备。 本文为基于公开视频的分析性总结,不构成原内容替代。Mark Cuban · 2026/02/12
- 对于任何声称在 Medicare / Medicaid(联邦医疗保险 / 医疗补助)患者身上亏钱的医院,我非常想看到那些他们“亏钱的手术”的物料清单(Bill of Materials)以及直接归属的运营成本。 比如: 一个髋关节植入物你们到底花了多少钱? 麻醉成本多少? 一次性耗材多少? 医生、护士在这台髋关节置换手术中,按实际工作时长算,成本是多少? 任何手术或医疗操作,都请给出同样的明细。 疯狂的是:这些信息我在任何地方都找不到。 请直接向我展示: 在 Medicare 或 Medicaid 的支付价格下,你们是如何在“直接成本(Direct Costs)”层面亏钱的。然后我们再来讨论——那些顾问费用、艺术品、昂贵装修、漂亮大楼等开支,到底在多大程度上“帮助”你们在医保患者身上赚不到钱。 我甚至自己买了医院成本会计的教材,认真翻完了,结果发现——里面依然没有任何真实数字 😂 For any hospital that says they lose money on Medicare/caid patients, I would LOVE to see the bill of materials and direct overhead attributed to the procedures you lose money on How much you pay for that hip implant, the anesthesia, disposables, the doctors/nurses etc, for the period of time they are working on that hip replacement. The same for any operations or procedures It's crazy that I can't find that information ANYWHERE Please show me how you lose money on Direct Costs at Medicare or Medicaid rates , then we can discuss the value of all the consultants , paintings , beautiful buildings , etc contribute to your inability to make money on the Medies I even bought and went through hospital cost accounting text books and found no real numbers 😂Mark Cuban · 2026/01/16
- 为什么 HSA(健康储蓄账户) 要以任何形式和保险政策挂钩? 难道我们不希望人们尽可能多地为自己的医疗支出储蓄吗? 取消 HSA 与保险的绑定。大幅提高缴费上限,或者干脆彻底取消上限。 Why are HSAs connected in any way to insurance policies ? Don't we want people to save as much as possible for their healthcare ? Remove the link to insurance. Increase the caps considerably, or remove them altogetherMark Cuban · 2026/01/16
- 还想再知道一个为什么医疗费用离谱的原因吗? 医院不仅会收取设施费和各种名目繁多的额外费用,而且——如果他们认为保险公司愿意支付的金额高于患者账单上的金额,他们就会直接把账单金额抬高,向保险公司多收费。 当然,随后保险公司又会把这笔更高的费用转嫁给自保型雇主。 我们的医疗体系已经变成了一场看谁能宰谁、还能不被追责的游戏。 大到不在乎(Too Big To Care)——整个系统都是如此。 把它们拆分! Want another reason why healthcare costs are insane ? Hospitals will not only charge a facility fee and other random costs BUT ALSO , if they believe the insurance company is willing to pay MORE THAN WHAT WAS ON THE PATIENT BILL, THEY WILL INCREASE THE BILL to the insurance company. Of course the insurance company then charges the self insured employer the higher amount. Our healthcare has become a game of who can rip off who and get away with it. Too Big To Care - all of it. Break em up !Mark Cuban · 2026/01/16
