1983年,美国许多团体提出了大量拯救缺少资金的老年医疗保险制度的建议。美国医学会(下简称AMA)也提出了建议。这些建议大多是关于增加税收和增加受益人成本分摊。 AMA代表大会在其1984年年会上,通过了一个理事会的报告。建议提高烟酒税收(包括指定用于医疗保险信托基金的新税款收入),提高健康保险工资税。并且,首次提出了,增加非工资收入的健康保险税。报告还建议,受益者应通过一系列的形式,向医疗保险偿还,如:增加保险费、成本分摊和提高受益者合法年龄。对于医生,委员会重申了AMA的政策,即医生应考虑接受医疗保险的津贴,先给需要帮助的病人支付。
In 1983, many groups in the United States proposed a large number of proposals to save the lack of funds for the elderly medical insurance system. The American Medical Association (AMA) also made recommendations. Most of these suggestions are about increasing taxes and increasing the cost-sharing of beneficiaries. At its 1984 annual meeting, the AMA Congress adopted a report of the Council. It is recommended that taxes on tobacco and alcohol be increased (including new tax revenues earmarked for Medicare trust funds) to increase the health insurance payroll tax. And, for the first time, we have proposed to increase the health insurance tax for non-wage income. The report also suggests that beneficiaries should reimburse health insurance through a series of forms, such as: increase insurance premiums, cost sharing and increase the legal age of beneficiaries. For doctors, the committee reiterated AMA’s policy that doctors should consider receiving benefits from medical insurance and pay patients who need help.
