...just wait for the bills from millions of illegals to hit the system.
Paperwork is one thing, but DEI Doctors are more concerning.
Doctors and the AMA sold their souls. They are no longer trustworthy. They are no different than the Teamsters, IMO.
Most normal people do not understand how close the system is to collapse.
We all know what the problem is.
What do you think was going to happen when you demonize heterosexual White men and accuse them of being racist all the time?
I switched to a small practice that seems to actually believe in medical freedom. My wife made an appointment and has to wait 6 months to get in. They are that busy.
There’s been a considerable population increase in this country without a corresponding increase in the number of doctors. You can thank the medical establishment for this as they limit the number of medical schools available.
Jan. 20. Trump signs the bill to totally eliminate Obamacare in one year. Congress will have been in session for 2 weeks by then. No McCains on our side to muck up the works.
The country will then be facing a one year deadline to come up with something new-market based. I have faith that Trump will have a plan that covers EVERYBODY-he’s said it before.
If he wins by a big enough margin the rats will have no choice but to get rolled and accept the fact that they’re scum.
Once again, problems are driven by GOVERNMENT.
Medicaid drives emergency room visits. There is every incentive, even for the slightest problem, to go to the emergency room. Our marxist betters in DC have also wrapped up this economic incentive problem with “race and equity” as well, as if to make the problem completely un-fixable.
A number of my physician clients have switched to a “concierge”, or fee-for-service model just so they don’t have to deal with insurance companies.
Insurance companies are pure evil, and in it only for the money. Yes, they do pay for some things, but they do not intend to lose a penny. They have caused prices in medical care, medications, and devices to skyrocket. They determine how much hospitals, doctors, pharmacies, and medical suppliers can charge, some of the largest of them have bought up said businesses. Of course, obamacare is at the root of their increased power. It would be very interesting to know how much stock in these companies Obama and the authors of obamacare (and the legislators who approved it) own. Pure corruption.
Thanks Obunghole!
Several years ago I was trying to break up a toilet tank with a hammer so it would fit in a garbage can. A very sharp shard opened up my wrist so, bound with paper towels and electrical tape it was off to the ER. Fortunately, the cut missed major blood vessels and just nicked some tenons. It opened up a few inches. I waited 4 hrs to get a dozen staples to close it up. Every time I came close to seeing a doc, another uninsured gunshot wounded gang banger would show up. Spent 4K. (deductable was about that number as Obama care let me keep my plan (at twice the deductable))
Obie care…
My wife a Stage IV cancer survivor is having gall bladder problems that sent us to the ER last week and to surgery next week.
It is unbelievable how much the system has changed.
And it has nothing to do with doctors but the system itself is unbelievably bad...
*The country will then be facing a one year deadline to come up with something new-market based.*
He could gore the ox by putting nurses in charge of the new plan. It would show more his respect for women, something they’re not smart enough to recognize. The cads out there like Bill Clinton get rewarded when they come up with terms like soccer moms. No heavy lifting involved.
And imagine if you are an insurer who is forced to cover pre-existing conditions, cannot impose annual or lifetime limits on coverage, and is forced to pay for useless treatments and procedures that have no medical justification at all.
The average wait time to see a doctor has increased since 2017 and continued to rise after the demand spike brought on by COVID-19. A survey conducted by AMN Healthcare in 2022 of 15 large metro markets revealed the average time to see a physician was 26 days—an 8 percent increase from 2017 and a 24 percent spike since 2004.
The above is why a 50 something age wise couple/friends have gone to Amazon’s medical phone service for his seasonal allergies versus the big health provider and her minor medical needs both with a 3-5 week wait.
He recently used them for his seasonal allergy medical needs and was pleased.
Their adult daughters are satisfied with their care in their out of state medical needs.
“You’ll have better health care, and it will cost less!” is infantile nonsense.
It’s like telling voters they will be able to live at Trump Tower and pay $800/month in rent.
