Ohio University HCOM – Lecture: Profits in Medicine: A Superior Model, by Dr. Beth Haynes

January 27, 2015 @ 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm

Free

beth-amac-thumbnailDr. Beth Haynes, Executive Director of Benjamin Rush Institute, will present a lecture on why medicine and healthcare are delivered optimally in a profit-based system, rather than in a government-, or even non-profit system. Free market medicine is better for doctors, patients, and the poor. We invite you to come and listen to Dr. Haynes, especially if this viewpoint is unfamiliar to you or counter to your current views.

Note: This event occurs in the Eastern Time Zone.
Please RSVP so that we can provide enough refreshments for all!

POST-EVENT SUMMARY:
Dr. Beth Haynes, Executive Director of Benjamin Rush Institute came to speak to students at Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine. Her lecture was entitled “The Merits of Profit in Medicine.” She used many examples to demonstrate that medicine is best without government restraints, and when profit drives the system.

After the lecture, many excellent questions were asked, and physicians from the community discussed their systems. This was an excellent event that turned out a high attendance even though many other events were occurring that night. The only suggestion was that some students voiced wanting to see more statistical data and studies to back up claims.
