“Yes. There was a thread on FR yesterday about the panel that has/will be established with Obamacare that makes determinations on American’s healthcare whether the government pays for it or not.”

Thanks for that - I’m trying to understand how Obamacare compares to the NHS as the latter is often used as a blunt intrument to beat the former!

Even if what is described on the other thread goes ahead, Americans will still be able to get what they need via HMO’s or by paying themselves like us though won’t they?

IPAB’s unelected members will have effectively unfettered power to impose taxes and ration care for all Americans, whether the government pays their medical bills or not.

That is what is so frightening about ObamaCare. It doesn't matter if you've saved through the years to fund your own health needs or not, Big Brother makes the final decision.
