Bing Blog – A Little Harse?

Stanley Bing has written for Fortune for a while and now has a blog.  One of his latest entries is about healthcare and insurance.  Obviously, we have problems with the system (as pointed out in Sicko), but I found some of the comments a little harse.

We can get better, but we should all be thankful for what we do have which allows us access to experts 24×7 using good technology.  We pay a lot per measure of clinical outcome but we have lots of options for how to get treated.  The system isn’t seamless, but it generally works.

I guess for all the criticism which is easy to lob sometimes it seems too harse when people focus only on the negative.  The more you work in healthcare the more you realize how difficult it is to find the right solution.  I don’t envy the politicians.
