One thing that would go a long way to reduce to medical costs and make health care more affordable is to establish the field of Preventive Medicine. Such a field can exist comfortably along with all other specialties as there will be always a real need for doctors and hospitals. The way this new specialized field would lower costs is it would prevent many problems happening in the first place, such as obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, many heart problems for starters as these areas would not happen if we all ate the right foods, exercised and avoided certain practices.

Now we can say "Practicing Preventive Medicine can along with eating an apple a day can keep the doctor away".

The gov't. should ban all alcohol, tobacco, saturated fat, high salt content and sugary products. That would go a long way to improve health. ;)
