“Since 1970 Medicare’s Costs Have Risen 34% a Year Faster Than the Rest of Health Care”? Why Would That Be?
Question by DAR: “since 1970 Medicare’s costs have risen 34% a year faster than the rest of health care”? Why would that be?
And what about this: ” Stanford University professor Scott Atlas points out that from 1998 to 2002 nearly twice as many new drugs were launched in the U.S. as in Europe. According the U.S. Pharmaceutical Industry Report, some 2,900 new drugs are now being researched here. America’s five top hospitals conduct more clinical trials than all the hospitals in any other developed country, according to Mr. Atlas. And a McKinsey Co. study reports that 40% of all medical travelers come to the United States for medical treatment.”

Answer by Charles H
Controversy over AD/HD is not because of one thing; there are quite a few controversial decisions related to the disorder. One reason is because the disorder was only labeled recently. 40 years ago, no one would have heard of AD/HD- people with the disorder were seen as “hyper kids” or someone with learning problems.
Treating the disorder, has only been seen in the past 30 or so years. they’re still researching treatments and only started prescribing medications under strict rules. Dosages, proper medication, causes and basically everything about the disorder are still being looked into.. treatments for AD/HD are young and still being looked into.
