COVID-19 revealed how sick the US health care delivery system really is

Teera Konakan/Moment via Getty ImagesIf you got the COVID-19 shot, you likely received a little paper card that shows you’ve been vaccinated. Make sure you keep that card in a safe place. There is no coordinated way to share information about who has been vaccinated and who has not. That is just one of the glaring flaws that COVID-19 has revealed about the U.S. health care system: It does not share health information well.

Michigan lawmakers unveil bills to curb health care costs By DAVID EGGERTFebruary 25, 2021 GMT LANSING, Mich. (AP) A Republican legislative leader and other lawmakers on Wednesday unveiled bipartisan measures they said are designed to lower prescription drug prices, bring parity in insurance coverage of chemotherapy and improve the quality of health care.
