Yes, she adequately tell Aetna about the breech of contract in her letter. Once breeched, continuing to honor it would reform the contract so she must exercise her option to tell them to shove it.
I believe what grumpygresh is saying is that the application of Obamacare to Dr. Held's practice is as if EMTALA were being applied to her private physician office.
BUMP for later...
Dr. Held knows that Obama Care establishes totalitarian fascism. She is practicing civil disobedience, as should ALL of America.
Good read:
Barack Obama the Quintessential Fascist:

you might be right.
However, I’m unaware of any Obamacare penalties for refusing to triage and stabilize a patient, and EMC’s don’t come into play. It’s only a case of the insurance company claiming it can contractually force a physician to see a patient under terms to which the physician never agreed.
The backlash is starting...
This is off the subject, but am I the only one that finds the use of “Patient” or “Doctor-Patient” as terminology that is almost intended to demean the relative status of the person responsible for paying the bills.....the customer.
The use of “Patient” denotes almost an inanimate object or as a subject instead of a peer. I’ve told the health care establishment more than once that I’m a customer, not a patient.
The concept of customer vs patient is out of the medical community’s historical thought process on the relationship, that they can’t comprehend the not so subtle difference. It is intended more to put them on a pedestal and us on an exam table.
Note he’s a she.
Bump. Good call, and good for the Doctor.
Obama's dystopian horror-show needs to disappear down the maws of a million nibbling ducks.
Careful, the foaming moonbat liars will accuse you of trying to summon the shade of Simon Legree.
Obamacare is all gonna fall apart. Doctors against it all across the country should just go on strike, until this garbage is repealed.
“Obamacare is like a ball and chain clamped around the Democrats’ necks.”
No, think “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner”

Obamacare is an albatross, Friend; a great, huge, dead, mouldering ALBATROSS, and we ought to ensure that the Left WEAR IT until they grovel in the DUST and BEG forgiveness!
They can beg forgiveness, but I'm not in a forgiving mood. Not after all the damage the 'Progressive' left has done to my country these last 100 years.
They can freeze to death on the porch, as far as I'm concerned.
What office is she up for and, if not, why not? We need more truth-tellers out there. Government is 90% bigger than it should be, not just by size, but more importantly by scope.
Keep in mind that the SCOTUS Chief Justice, a Bush appointee, couldn’t see what this mere doctor can. Those Ivy league Kwepies can’t be smarter than an A&M law school grad can they?
Yes..., I was. Thank you.
Oh, I agree with the Marxist part of it, but I’m still holding out for ass-hat clown.
His own fellow Marxists are also getting really tired of his act.
Thanks Hale. At least one of them, me too...
