I'm a dialysis patient. Three days a week, I spend 3 1/2 hours in a dialysis chair hooked up to a machine that is circulating and cleansing my blood.
I understand that roughly 2/3 of all Medicare expenditures are in support of dialysis patients. I've reviewed my billing to Medicare and the supplemental insurance company and know much it costs to keep me alive.
The "problem" is that the treatments and associated surgery to maintain the access are very expensive ...but they will keep us alive for years...and years...and years.
For that reason, I've no doubt that -- once Obamacare fully kicks in -- we dialysis patients will be squarely in the sights of the federal bureaucrats.
