Obama is SO WONDERFUL!!
Or fewer people are going to the hospital since their insurance has been canceled. Hospitals are germs factories. Patients are much safer in their own homes.
Well at least its something we can measure! like "raising awareness"
Hospitals closed because of Obumacare
pre-2010 hospitals took no precautions for patient safety. /sarc
Jeez-us, these people are pathetic. If our glorious government was not there to ‘protect’ us, how would the world function?
So... she’s claiming that there has been a decline in hospital acquired conditions since Obamacare kicked in in 2010, but data on these conditions has only been collected since 2010? How on earth can she make such a claim?
Attributing it to punishing hospitals for readmissions is just plain ludicrous. If hospitals refuse to admit critically ill patients because they will be punished for it, what are those patients supposed to do? I guess if they die from lack of treatment at home, they do not contribute to hospital statistics.
You can’t make hospital care better by punitive measures. You have to study the actual problems and address each problem specifically. That’s liberalism for you—always seeking to solve problems with blanket “solutions” that can’t possibly fix anything, instead of taking the time to study the problem to come up with workable solutions. Liberals are lazy!

If only The One didn’t need to sleep! I await his apotheoisis.
That one is no lie. Prophylactic medications, many of them regulated to the extent that the government is specifying which ones must be used. The price we will pay for this is long term. One is that the patients will often end up on drugs for life with stress to the kidneys and body. Another is that overuse of antibiotics is contributing to drug resistance. The biggest problem is that doctors who readmit their patients (for the right reasons obviously) will be kicked out of hospitals to reduce the penalties. The intent of course is to destroy the US private health care system.
So. Jonathan Gruber is still working I see.
Grubering again!
Lies, damned lies, and statistics.
The same people making the claim that Obamacare is responsible are providing the data that says it happened.
They've already shown they'll lie for the cause. Don't see any reason to believe they're not still doing it.
Ha....they would save even more lives if the closed a few more abortion mills.
They don’t have a functioning website and we’re supposed to believe their “system” is working? I call BS. This reporter is pathetic.
I understand scores of rural hospitals have been forced to close due to Obamacare.
More fun with numbers, I’m guessing?
Can’t be injured at a hospital that’s gone out of business.
Sorry, but if an article has the curse word “Obama: in it and this is followed by any claims of intelligence or improvement, I consider the writer to be an idiot and the article to be total bunch of bull-Obama.
Face it, libs, YOUR president is 1) not intelligent at all, 2) a quota baby who couldn’t get into a community college without graft and corruption, 3) immoral, and 4) a slimy Muslim.
And you, and he, can shove both of yourselves up your collective Obamaholes.
Why did he only save the 50K? Were the others white or something?
