2017 B: Bobby, Daniel & Nick - Medicare: Outdated and Unsustainable?

Colgate University Public Economics Course - A podcast by Professor Daniel Ludwinski

Medicare in the United States - Is it outdated and unsustainable? If it is not reformed, it has potential big implications on elders’ future access to quality health care and massive burdens on taxpayers. We will further examine these implications and talk about why the current structure of Medicare has become outdated, specifically for taxpayers and the allocation of the money within the healthcare industry. We will garner potential solutions with the experts we reach out to in the healthcare industry. We have discussed the allocation of responsibilities, but will be working together for the majority of the project.
