This Tuesday's forum will use NIF's brand new issue guide on Health Care Costs, which is FREE to download when you register. Here's an excerpt.
Nationally, our collective spending on health care threatens this country's long-term solvency and with it the ability to pay for other national priorities. The federal government is mandated to spend 22 percent of its budget on health care. Many of us may be surprised to learn that this is more than it spends on defense -- and does not even include the more than $50 billion spent annually on medical care for military forces and for veterans.
