It costs me over $5,000CDN per year and I don’t use it. I have pair over $200,000CDN and never used it.

Reducing reimbursement rates for hospitals, physician, and clinical services: $188 billion

enslavement of doctors

[rktman]

Why is Burger King doin' a study? 🍔🍟

[Buckeye McFrog]

AND save me $2500 per year? AND let me keep my doctor?

[jazusamo]

LOL! I knew that would come up. :)

Study’s are a dime a dozen, near worthless given most study’s are ‘made to order’ of a particular political or ideological agenda.......

More ‘ we choose truth over facts’ garbage.

[Sirius Lee]

You know the old saying - You gotta spend 10 trillion to save 450 billion.

[Repealthe17thAmendment]

Doctors, nurses, and other health care workers will make minimum wage under the plan. Hospital rooms will be turned into dorms, and the food, well, it will stay the same.

It's all about cutting costs. That's what they don't want to tell you about.

[rktman]

If you like your AR, you can keep your AR!

Dang, this belongs at Burger King.

Yep, sounds like some of the burger flippers did the study. :^)

Medicare for all would not significantly increase or decrease costs. It would mainly have employers send checks to the IRS before the money arrives at a Medicare bill paying contractor of CMS such as a Blue Cross instead of going directly from the employer to a Blue Cross.

“Medicare for All” would add universal custodial care and dental care and cost significantly more.

[Maceman]

Reducing reimbursement rates for hospitals, physician, and clinical services: $188 billion

All that will do is cut down the number of rural hospitals who are already struggling for money and depending on the already minimal CMS payments.

When I had insurance back in 1988 I had to find a doctor who was still part of the plan. It was quite the hunt.

I never saw him, but I was told he was still taking plan patients.

[DoughtyOne]

I think they would have done better...

"enslavement of doctors"

Yes, it is but the answer to this problem is actually a very simple one. It's time to propose "EDU-Care", a reduced college Education cost program for everyone. There are millions of Americans who go without a college degree due to it's high cost. Let's fix it. All colleges and their professors must agree to provide an education to anyone who wants one, as a college education is their right, without any of those discriminatory "entrance exams" allowed, at a lower, government-approved cost. If this approach is being offered as a solution to health care, let's apply it across the board to education as well. I propose that we begin this experiment with Yale to see how it might work.

Not just a Whopper Alert, this is an Impossible Burger Alert. It’s 100% fake meat.
