Healthcare Reform

I think that doctors should be in charge of doctor stuff

I think that mechanics should be in charge of mechanic stuff

I think that coaches should be in charge of coaching stuff 

 

and so on...

 

and everyone else should pretty much shut up about other people's expertise.

The world won’t miss Rush, what a vile, awful human being.

[BigRedBuster]

Oh my....

 

how much do you want to bet this echos what Rush has said. 
 

Every one in the WH right now is trying to shut this down.

Yeah....but they need to figure out their wait time problem.

That article you linked says that wait times went up in some segments and down in some.  Overall, they said wait times need to be fixed.  Interesting though, there are more doctors per capita in the US than there are in Canada.  Also, there are more specialists here...which is the wait times the article was referencing.

 

I'd expect that number to be lower in the US.

It’s talking about the wait times in Canada. On average they went up from a year ago.

Yet the leader in the clubhouse for the Dems right now does not want M4A, something about this seems wrong.

My wife and I are looking at medicare plans now - yes I'm that old.   The medicare part A + part B (costs $145/mo)and medicare supplement (cost $140/mo) ends up costing basically the same as my employee heath care. However the medicare side comes with no co-pays and only a $198 deductible. Currently I have all of those copays and a $3k deductible (had to raise my deductible because the premiums keep jumping sky high each year).  If Bernie's plan is any thing like this - then count me in.

Bernie's plan is actually better than current Medicare. No deductibles, no copays, no out of pocket for drugs plus dental, vision, and hearing are included.

No more than $200 a year for prescription drugs plus home healthcare is covered also.
