The next
time you pay a deductible or co-pay, or you have to make a choice
between food and a prescription, or you hear of someone going through a
medical bankruptcy, think about the huge compensation CEOs of insurance
and pharmaceutical companies are getting while you struggle to pay for
your healthcare.
I’m quoting from a new healthcare site put up by Pennsylvanians who want a better healthcare system. Taking their information from the Forbes list they detail how much money some of the CEO’s of healthcare organizations have collected. I am appalled when I think of most CEO pay, after all, they are only human, but this makes me angry and appalled. I don’t understand why anyone is entitled to make money for what I see is a non-service, or worse, an impediment. They are not my doctor, or nurse or anyone else whose services benefit me.
