Shouldn’t be a surprise, he said this throughout the campaign. “Nobody will be allowed to die in the streets”. But there are lots of ways to do this way less intrusively and expensively than Obamacare.

Bill Clinton slams ObamaCare as ‘craziest thing in the world’

By Daniel Halper and Marisa Schultz

October 4, 2016

Bill Clinton has blasted President Obama’s signature piece of legislation — ObamaCare — as “the craziest thing in the world.”

You’ve got this crazy system where all of a sudden, 25 million more people have health care, and then the people who are out there busting it, sometimes 60 hours a week, wind up with their premiums doubled and their coverage cut in half and it’s the craziest thing in the world,” the former president railed at a rally in Michigan on Monday.

Clinton also said the system is hurting moderately successful small businesses — ones that aren’t doing poorly enough to be subsidized and fall just above the line.

“On the other hand, the current system works fine if you’re eligible for Medicaid, if you’re a lower-income working person, if you’re already on Medicare or if you get enough subsidies on a modest income that you can afford your health care,” Clinton said.

“But the people getting killed in this deal are the small-business people and individuals who make just a little bit too much to get any of these subsidies,” he added. ...”

More little clinics with a well trained PA to handle not so emergency cases would be cheaper and faster than an ER.

Kick off all illegals and refugees. Make prisoners pay co-pays for health care.

Reduce the cost of meds, Big Pharma is making BILLIONS as are docs off our health care.

Put congress on same plan.

Make congress pay back all the Medicare money. Pay docs timely, and at a reasonable reimbursement. Include Glasses and hearing aids for seniors. Even with a co-pay. If there is a medical reason for a so called ‘cosmetic’ procedure it should be covered. Lots of people have lost hearing and sight due to bad surgeries and Lasix can fix some of that and hearing aids. And don’t discriminate on medical issues. Peripheral Neuropathy is PN, no matter the cause, why should a Diabetic be covered at 100% and a spinal patient at 75%? Same doc, same med, same treatments.

Better training of Primaries. They lack a lot of medical knowledge. If a patient has high Blood Sugar send them to an ENDO instead of an untrained Primary treating them. Same goes for Thyroid issues. Natural Paths for those who don’t want drugs.
