The average person will hear “I'm sorry this plan does not pay for this treatment or medication given your (fill in the blank with any reason to deny treatment because of the cost factor).”
Quality medical care (and by that I mean the quality we are used to) will still be available in this country but only to those who have the means to pay the extra cash.
Each treatment will have qualifiers: conditions that must be met before anything is paid for. Again, the rich will not have to worry about the qualifiers. “Do whatever it takes” will not be an option for the majority of us.
The rich will live longer and the rest of us will have to accept an early death because the treatment is just to expensive.
Congress has NEVER given up anything and never will.
