One of the goals of Obamacare is to make the cost of
healthcare less expensive.
There are two
ways to do this. One way is to make
medical care more competitive. The other
way is to make medical unavailable.
Obamacare will make medical care unavailable, by eliminating facilities
such as children’s hospitals, and research and teaching institutions from
insurance coverage.
The unspoken Obama lie is….. if you like your HOSPITAL, you
can keep it – period.
One of Obama’s scare tactics in selling Obamacare was his
repeated comment that ‘most people are only one illness away from bankruptcy.' Well, guess what...
PricewaterhouseCoopers
released a study that said "the use of narrow networks may also lead to
higher out-of-pocket expenses, especially if a patient has a complex medical
problem that's being treated at a hospital that has been excluded from their
health plan."
Just out this weekend - health-care exchanges in New York, Texas and California will
not offer patients’ access to Memorial Sloan Kettering in
Manhattan or MD
Anderson Cancer Center in Houston or Cedars-Sinai
in Los Angeles. Blue Cross Blue
Shield in Tennessee created a new
network that would not pay for treatment at several hospitals in the state,
including world-renowned Vanderbilt University Medical Center.
The Mayo Clinic in Minnesota had earlier been cut out of most
health plans sold on the exchanges.
The network for the Anthem BlueCross BlueShield plans, which
will be sold through Missouri’s
“Obamacare” marketplace, does not include BJC HealthCare and its 13 hospitals -
among them Barnes-Jewish
Hospital, the area’s premier academic medical center, and St. Louis
Children’s Hospital. The Cleveland Clinic in Ohio is
already being limited as to who they can serve.
So it seems, if you need a hospital that might CURE you, you'll be paying out of pocket..... how's THAT for bankruptcy WITH INSURANCE!
And this is only the tip of the iceberg. [Update 12/10/13..... your Obamacare may not carry your specialty medication, such as those for rheumatoid arthritis, or Parkinson's or MS. There is also a mention of a 'try/fail' method for providing meds.... they try you on cheaper/generics to see if THEY will work, and when they fail, they will try something else..... anything to save a dime, yet the government has pisses away $700,000,000 on an antiquated, non-secure, non-OPERATING website! Yeah, baby - THANK A DEMOCRAT!]
The government’s efforts to reduce medical care costs will
mean the vast majority of healthcare consumers will be receiving medical care
from doctors that graduated from foreign medical schools, or graduated in the
bottom of their medical school class.
The quality doctors will be in the research centers…. and will be
unavailable to the average citizen.
Except for our elected officials and government staffers…. but
then, they are NOT average citizens, are they?
Obamacare is like an onion…. you have to peel away the
layers (pass the law so you can learn what’s in it) to find that it is truly
rotten to the core.
