The healthcare jobs no one is talking about (More Bureaucrats)
Philadelphia Inquirer ^ | 12/31/2013 | Marilyn Kennedy

Even if you faint at the sight of blood or have no aptitude for science, don’t rule out a career in the growing health care field.

That’s the message from a recent 12-page report found at CollegeForAmerica.org.

“Nonclinical health care workers are those who do not provide direct patient care and often operate out of the view of patients, such as office, technology and administrative positions. Frontline health care workers are those who work in the community connecting patients to care,” reads the report.

The Affordable Care Act is one major impetus behind the growth of these positions

Even a health care bureaucrat cannot escape the health care bureaucrat death panels.

The reason healthcare is so expensive is because of the layers of paper pushers and middlemen. Pay cash when ever you can and reduce your cost this way.

Obamacare will save money by creating more nonclinical health care positions that do not provide direct patient care? Only a liberal union organizer would believe that.

For a quick look at an August 12, 2009, assessment of the Trojan Horse called Obamacare, visit this post by 2ndDivisionVet.

How amazingly accurate an assessment was O'Leary's column?

The supportive constituency/bureaucracy of Obamacare grows stronger every day. Because the GOP was unwilling to cut off funds, the parasitical virus will grow. Unless Obamacare is excised soon, this grafting of Marx onto Madison means certain death to what little remains of our republic.

The economic benefits of new private sector health care jobs will be eclipsed by the economy sapping, monolithic bureaucracy ObamaCare is building. Massive layoffs due to the employer mandate have been occurring for the last year. Hospitals and clinics have been laying off workers in anticipation of the reduced compensation from Medicare, the result of looting $700 billion from Medicare to prop up ObamaCare.

The negative economic effects of this law are countless. The first layoffs happened the day the law was signed. Construction halted at dozens of new physician owned hospitals and clinics. These specialized facilities are outlawed under ObamaCare. The general hospital lobby claimed that physician owned hospitals were attracting too many high-dollar patients and represented “unfair” competition. It goes on from there—causing economic havoc in almost every level of the private sector.

ObamaCare has nothing to do with compassion or service. It is about creating a huge new federal work force, most of whom will be unionized Democrats dedicated to bigger and bigger government.

So with pretty much everyone being waivered, exempted, delayed, etc, what are those 15,000 new attorneys and accountants the IRS hired for Obamacare doing these days?

Ever been inside a BC&BS office complex ?”

Spent an hour on hold with BC this morning trying to find out when a claim for a patient was paid as it kept denying as a duplicate but we never received any money. After listening to me for a few minutes she interrupted and stated that requests like mine are now considered routine service requests and no longer handled through “Customer Service”. She concluded by stating that sufficient resources are available on-line and I should learn to utilize them. Then she clicked out.

Not sure what the people seated at the rows and rows of desks in their multi-floor office building are doing. Their complexes remind me of a government office building.

The British National Health Services employs 1.4 million people serving a population of about 63 million people. One in every 23 Britons works for their socialized medicine system. In comparison, McDonalds has about about 1.7 million employees world wide and in the US only about 6% of the population works in health care.
