Single-Payer Healthcare Would Create Unimaginable Government Bureaucracy

When Tom Sheehy, Principal and Founder of Sheehy Strategy Group, thinks about single-payer healthcare, the first thing that comes to mind is the “DMV.”

Imagine the same government that’s in charge of the DMV being in control of your healthcare. 

If the government takes control, businesses that provide private healthcare would be forced to shut down. Many people would lose their jobs and health providers. 

The government already has too much paperwork to handle as it is. What would happen if they had to process everyone’s doctor appointments and hospital visits?

Sheehy says this scenario is “unimaginable.”
