But this is only the enrollment process.

Wait 'til Obamacare starts scheduling surgeries, tests, procedures.

Wait 'til Obamacare starts checking for drug incompatibilities, dosages, etc.

Wait 'til Obamacare starts doing the real medical stuff.

"We have to pass it so we can find out what is in it." Indeed!

Currently, the Obamacare website just matches up people with participating health insurance providers, who already have long experience with dealing with doctors.

The fun will start when these health insurance providers increasingly discover that the only people who've signed up are those with expensive chronic conditions, whose cost of service greatly exceeds premiums paid. As the losses mount, the insurance providers will have a choice between limiting treatment options, or going bankrupt.

What happens when somebody has "health insurance" in theory, but in practice no doctors able to see him for the next nine months?
