We do need to do better. It's called Universal Health Care. Every industrialized country in the world and many non-industrialized countries have Universal Health Care EXCEPT the United States (for a complete list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_with_universal_health_care ). The author of this Op-Ed gives France as an example of cheaper health care. Guess what: Universal Health Care! Even President Trump must believe this. In May he said to Australian Prime Minister Malcolm "...you have better healthcare than we do...". Guess what: Universal Health Care!

There most certainly is a better way to deliver health care than we are doing in the US. When health care is viewed as a human right and not a luxury for those who can afford it, when we truly respect human life and we truly try to follow "Christian" teachings then we will have Universal Health Care.
