Swiss Reject Single Payer

A stunning defeat for a single-payer plan in Switzerland. Consumers for Health Choices:

“On Sunday the Swiss people voted overwhelmingly to reject a Single Payer system. But there has been not a word about it in the American press – other than a single paragraph in the trade publication Business Insurance.

“The vote was on whether to replace Switzerland’s current system of mandatory health insurance coverage provided by 87 private health plans with a single payer system based on income-related premiums. It was rejected by 71% of the voters.

The Swiss like their healthcare choices. No slavish devotion to a European model by the MSM on this one.
