Like many, I’m intrigued by the health care reform proposal recently put forward by a Nevada Senate candidate. The proposal calls for a return to the barter system for health care delivery. There are only a few problems. One recent analysis concluded that basing such a system solely on chickens would be impossible, given the sheer number of chickens required.
Another shortcoming--what to do about adverse events and nosocomial infections? Shouldn’t a patient also receive goods or services if he or she is harmed during the delivery of health care? I can see it now…returning home after a hospital stay complicated by a nosocomial infection, you discover that the hospital has sent someone over to paint your house…
