They didn’t get the memo. ObamaDeathCare is wonderful, the GOPe and their corporate lackeys love it.

Socialized medicine in a nutshell.

Thank you, Obama, for ruining the best healthcare system on Planet Earth.

No worries. Kentucky’s senior Senator vowed to repeal Obamacare in the last election cycle.

Spit.

And who is responsible? Surprise, surprise, it's the Democratic governor in mostly Republican Kentucky, Steve Beshear.

Don’t worry Kentucky, for McConnell and his
family and Staff are EXEMPT.

Grubered Kentuckians deserve ALL they get having put
the #1 Senate Democrat McConnell
in charge of the coverup of DeathCARE/RomneyCARE.

So they are treating more people at a loss. Thousands have been laid off, leaving fewer workers to care for more people.

Rural hospitals are closing, which will force more people into liberal cities if they want healthcare.

I hate the bastard in the White House for destroying the best healthcare system in the world.

The story’s impact has been lost in the silly snark of the posters above.

Kentucky has a Democrat governor and a Democrat House, so ObamaCare was embraced by the state. McConnell has nothing to do with this on the state level.

As a physician, I’m seeing lots of people coming out of the woodwork who were not obtaining care because of lack of insurance. Now they have it, and they are getting healthcare.

That’s good.

What’s not so good is that the reimbursements are Medicaid level. Unless you run a medical factory, the payments are not high enough to sustain the delivery of decent quality health care.

That’s bad.

We’re losing most of the rural hospitals, and the city hospitals are having to shave pennies everywhere just to stay solvent. Many of them aren’t doing it very well.

Kentucky’s answer is to merge hospitals so the chains will be too large to fail. Will it work? Time will tell...
