Consolidation of the Health Care System by a Business Mogul

Reflections

Many hospitals in the PHL are being bought by mogul who has consolidated the utilities so far:  broadcast TV, tollways, electricity, and lately hospitals.  At the end of the day, he would have controlled vital industries to the country.  Health for instance.

His group which owns several hospital all ready, got last year almost half billion in profits which is substantial.

Will this acquisition improve the quality and cost of health care in the country.

It is an area that government as it is in the habit of, to look into.  Will the cost of health care go up?

Will it be less affordable to our all ready suffering populace?  What must the government do to counter this continuous commercialization of health care?

Shall we go by way of Eastern medicine?  What must we do to cater to the masses of people who can not afford basic health care?
