Face it, many people do not understand health insurance and how it works. They pay no attention to the rules. They will do what they always have done and the only thing they are used to. That would be showing up at the emergency room for a cold or a cough. They will figure their medicaid or new health insurance will pay the whole thing.
When I was an employer, there were employees who had great insurance but had no idea how to use it. You could sit down and explain it to them and it would go in one ear and out the other. They did what I was saying in the first paragraph of this post.
By the way, these are the same people who think an ambulance ride is totally free and get pissed off if there is any fee.
It would seem that Obama’s experiment with our health care system to insure the uninsured [because he cares and knows better than anyone else] has flopped horribly.
The only thing that has changed is that millions of people (with more on the way) who had health insurance they could afford, doctors they wanted and hospitals they needed, don’t have that any more .
