They also are prone to go to the ER for a skinned knee.
The devil is in the details.

I have to wonder if they are using the Obamacare parameters for “kids” and are counting 26 year old black males with a painkiller addiction????
I wouldn’t put statistics manipulations past these a-holes on the left based off what they do with temperature station data...

Are both black and white children on company insurance? Are they just talking about medicaid? Are they trying to equate inner city clinics with Mt. Sinai?
What are the parameters?

You would need to look at what kinds of procedures are involved
IF ANY of it’s true ( remember you quoted the US mainstream media here, so also consider their BS agenda) I would posit with great confidence -It’s ALL Medicaid - reimbursement related.

"Black patients with moderate pain were less likely to receive any analgesia, and black patients with severe pain were less likely to be treated with opioids," The DEA has most doctors scared to death to prescribe Opiates.
And the recent articles showing the feds spying on patient records looking for pill mills is going to make them really cautious about prescribing opiates.

Having been to one...I’d say NO, they don’t have nice hospitals. And they have drugs that are only used in Africa - no other place will allow them - according to the Dr. from Johns Hopkins that I luckily found.

Yup, they are already medicated when they come in.

And when they go to the dentist, x-rays are taken with a Polaroid.

Everything is racist. The main question is does racism cause global warming or is it the other way around.

Now we will have pain medication rationing. All of this crap emirates from the pro-Muslim, communist, black racist in the White House.
