    Neither do American doctors, they charge a couple of hundred dollars because that's what it's worth. $5k would get you like 4 days in intensive care, are you just pulling these numbers out of your ass?

    Fairly priced my ass. The countries with universal healthcare strongarm pharmaceutical companies into selling their products for cost, which doesn't leave any money for R&D. Americans are footing the bill for every new advance in medicine, if we go single payer then either your prices are going to skyrocket to make up the difference or research will stagnate and no new treatments will be developed. You're welcome.

    2. Drug Costs

    Another major difference in health costs between the U.S. and every other developed nation is the cost of drugs. In most countries, the government negotiates drug prices with the drug makers, but when Congress created Medicare Part D, it specifically denied Medicare the right to use its power to negotiate drug prices. The Veteran's Administration and Medicaid, which can negotiate drug prices, pay the lowest drug prices. The Congressional Budget Office has found that just by giving the low-income beneficiaries of Medicare Part D the same discount Medicaid recipients get, the federal government would save $116 billion over 10 years. Think of what the savings might be if all Medicare recipients could benefit from Medicaid-negotiated drug prices.
