The concept of trying to get back what one puts in every year is new and a symptom of what is wrong with the current direction of the system. The way it was supposed to work was that I pay an annual premium based on actuarial estimates that would ensure the premiums will on average cover the medical liability over ones life. For example if I have paid premiums for say 40 years the premiums set would take account that ones claims on average when one is younger will be far lesser than the premiums paid at that time. Under such a system it should enable a competent provider to have the funds to pay the costs associated with greater health problems in old age.

I am partially with you on this one Eagle, as I used to work in a private hospital for six years and regularly meet with those from the public sector, both of whom considered the public and private hospital system were cows to be endlessly milked.
