MD Anderson Among Top Hospitals Excluded From Obamacare Coverage [UPDATED]
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3100749/posts

Just recently, the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center was announced as one of an elite group of six cancer research and treatment centers throughout the world who will participate in an ongoing collaborative effort to fast-track the advancement of cancer treatment development as part of a new GlaxoSmithKline initiative. It is just one in a series of many examples of how MD Anderson is the preeminent cancer research and treatment center in the United States, if not the world.

According to a new report in the Financial Times, new healthcare plans are being nudged by the statutes of the Affordable Care Act, otherwise known as Obamacare, so that they will exclude in-network coverage for patients to visit top cancer hospitals for advanced therapy — including MD Anderson — when the plans go into full effect next year.

In one to two years, maybe even less, we will go from stories of utter financial devastation and loss of homes and fortunes, to stories of untimely deaths and funerals, total devastation of families, lawsuits, and general wailing and gnashing of teeth.

The sad stories are only beginning.
