In the intervening two years since that article costs have gone up radically from what was estimated for Romney care and we have stories of health care rationing by inability to get service (as the story for this thread shows). It is not a surprise that universal insurance has led to inability to get care . . . that’s the function of a market . . . to make supply and demand equal through the mechanisms of price. When you remove that and require insurance, you get these results. Rationing of service through lack of supply (since demand has no cost — insurance is required regardless of whether you use the service or not) and higher costs for the socialist government who pays for the care since more people demand more care regardless of actual price of the care.
Due to State Agency interpretations and rulings to implement the statute. None of which have been challenged in a court. Maybe, someone running the program making the daily decisions would share the blame for its cost. Reading the second article I posted, possibly the Health Connector Board is the problem.
