This week's question:

The cost of medical care continues to rise in the United States. How can care providers balance the needs of patients with increasing pressure to contain costs?


Grok Nglorp
Neanderthal
Health-Policy
Analyst

"High-tech innovations like the wheel, the wedge, and the pulley have made it very difficult to keep healthcare costs down."


Louise
Lundstrom Domestician
 "You'd be surprised at how much you can save with coupons. Just clip them out and keep them handy in a kitchen drawer."

Tooth Fairy
Fairy

"We're seriously looking at branching out beyond teeth. In the future, surgeons may be reimbursed an additional 25 to 50 cents for each explanted organ they leave under their pillows."


Scary Walking Kool-Aid Jug
Company Spokesperson

"Kool-Aid: Dollar for dollar, more refreshing than Medicaid."

 

Crazy Milton
Psycho Salesman

"Paying too much for healthcare? At Crazy Milton's, we've got medical and surgical devices at prices so low, you'll think I'm CRAZY! Low, low, EVERYDAY low!"


Baby Doll
Cute Chick

"Eeep."*

 

*"Take heed: The rotten eggs you lay today shall become the putrid brethren of sulfurous waste tomorrow"
