$15 Trillion Cost to U.S. Taxpayers/ Insurance Premium Payers for 1985-2000 ... And Will Almost Triple in Cost to $40 Trillion in Next 15 Years!!!!! This calculation sheet is to support: How to save the U.S. Health Care System: http://www.geocities.com/fltaxpayer/endocrine/costed1.html Calculation to find medical care cost per household in year 2000: U.S. Total Medical Care Cost: $1.3 Trillion, Year 2000 U.S. population: 282 million http://eire.census.gov/popest/data/national/populartables/table01.php Table 1: Households by Type and Selected Characteristics: March 2000 http://www.census.gov/prod/2001pubs/p20-537.pdf �All households�, size is approximately 2.6 persons per household. U.S. Medical Cost per person: = $1.3 trillion cost / 282 million people in US = $1,300,000,000,000 / 282,000,000 = $1,300,000 / 282 = $4610 /person U.S. Medical Cost per household, year 2000: = $4510 x 2.6 persons per household = $11,700 per household Calculation to find medical care cost per household in year 2016: U.S. Total Medical Care Cost: $1.3 Trillion, Year 2016 U.S. population: 322 million http://eire.census.gov/popest/data/national/populartables/table01.php Table 1: Households by Type and Selected Characteristics: March 2000 http://www.census.gov/prod/2001pubs/p20-537.pdf �All households�, size is approximately 2.4 persons per household. See note 1 below, 2.4 is a really rough estimate. U.S. Medical Cost per person: = $4.0 trillion cost / 322 million people in US = $4,000,000,000,000 / 322,000,000 = $4,000,000 / 322 = $12,400 /person U.S. Medical Cost per household, year 2016: = $12,400 x 2.4 persons per household (2.4 is a really rough estimate) = $29,700 per household U.S. Health Care Spending growth rate: 7.3% after year ~2010 (Other estimates show a higher growth rate.) ..................................... Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services http://cms.hhs.gov/statistics/nhe/projections-2001/t1.asp (Data was on http://www.hcfa.gov/stats/NHE-Proj/proj2001/tables/t2.htm) National health expenditures are projected to reach $2.8 trillion in 2011, growing at a mean annual rate of 7.3 percent during the forecast period 2001-2011. During this period, we expect health spending to grow 2.5 percent per year faster than nominal gross domestic product (GDP), so that by 2011 it will constitute approximately 17.0 percent of GDP compared to its 2000 level of 13.2 percent.

Estimate approximately 1 / 2 of 6.8 million correction-growth were here all along. Approximately 1 / 2 of 6.8 million correction-growth due to international migration and children of immigrants in 1990's. Possible by 2016, total population will probably be higher. Number of persons per household has been dropping. Note per telephone call with G. Spencer (301)763-2436 census.gov

* General Note: Dioxin causes expensive disabilities
like ADD/ADHD, diabetes and cancer |. Support incentives to eliminate endocrine disruptors like dioxin and save |
$12,900 / year / household | on unnecessarily high indirect and direct medical costs, Medicare and private medical insurance, disability taxes and extra income taxes to make up for taxes not paid by unnecessarily disabled people. The solution is to provide 100% tax grants for dioxin etc. elimination using "taxes generated by industry."
