In every other industry, advances in technology have improved quality while simultaneously lowering prices. Why hasn't this occurred in medicine and healthcare? Dr. Robert Graboyes of the Mercatus Center discusses the effect of regulations. 

Access to healthcare goods and services vary by state. Jared Rhoads, former BRI chapter leader, worked with the Mercatus Center to create the Health Openness and Access Project to index state-to-state differences.

Also - be sure to check out Jared's other project HealthPolicyTV for the best-of-the-best videos on health policy from across the political spectrum. For more information on the role of regulations in medicine, see "Fortress and Frontier in American Health Care" by Dr. Graboyes.
