As politicians and bureaucrats debate the role of government in our health-care system, and as concerns by U.S. citizens and employers about rising health-care costs and lack of control and satisfaction are raised, millions of American health-care consumers -- without big government mandates -- are taking control of their health-care dollar and bringing about changes in the health insurance marketplace. ........


High-deductible health insurance plans (HDHPs) eligible for health savings accounts (HSAs), are attractive because they shift authority and control of the health care dollar to the patient, eliminate the administrative burden from small claims, and reintroduce the patient as the customer -- all positive steps toward improving our health care system.

Maybe the solution is for the government to get out of the way and let the free market do its' thing?
