“You do not (will not) know who your doctor will be or what hospital you can go to when you sign up.”

I read recently that in New York, only 25% of doctors where planning on taking Obamacare. Many of those were taking it because they had existing contracts that required them to. When those contracts run out the percentage will doubtless drop. Having a plastic card and paying lots of money for coverage does not guarantee anybody will accept that card.

In addition, I have recently learned that if you go outside the system and pay cash for treatment you can be denied all coverage inside the system. (I think this is for Medicaid and Medicare.) This is apparently common in the UK, where if you have cancer it may be untreatable by the time you get your second doctor visit which is generally over a year from your first.

Good information. Thank you for posting it.

D’Amato and Giuliani where separate guests on this morning’s Fox & Friends - both ripping this “healthcare” scheme apart.
