Docs won't take Obamacare.....so the obvious solution is to *require* them to take it.
Docs flee their profession in droves.....smart people don't *need* to be doctors. They can be engineers, lawyers, etc etc etc ad infinitum.
America's medical profession - truly the "shining beacon on a hill" for so many years - ceases to exist.
I'm hoping that it will stick around via inertia while I'm drawing breath. I worry about my kids' future, tho.
I want a natural pathetic doctor, more vits/mins than drugs. Drugs have caused more harm to my health than any vit/min I’ve ever taken. Last year I threw out a $200 bottle of Welchol for Cholesterol after just 5 pills nearly put me in a wheel chair. I’d gave them to some one taking it if I knew of any one.
Take a look at some of them. Reclast 1100 Kidney failure deaths, 2400 jaw degeneration, nearly as many A typical Femur fractures. The rest of the OP drugs have the same issue.
FMS is Fibromyalgia the drugs they prescribe all have side effects that mimic it, and people wonder why they feel worse. I refuse to take them and I’ve had FMS 28 yrs.

Reclast (zoledronic acid) is used to treat Paget’s disease, high blood levels of calcium caused by cancer (hypercalcemia of malignancy, multiple myeloma (a type of bone marrow cancer) or cancer that has spread from elsewhere in the body to the bone, to treat or prevent osteoporosis in postmenopausal women, and to increase bone mass in men with osteoporosis. It is also used to treat or prevent osteoporosis in people who will be taking certain steroid medicines for 12 months or longer. It is in a group of medicines called bisphosphonates. Common side effects include nausea, tiredness, flu-like symptoms (e.g., fever, chills, muscle/joint aches), dizziness, headache, or pain/redness/swelling at the injection site. Most of these side effects occur within 3 days of treatment.
I’ve listed the 2 most common since I take both. 30 yrs on Synthroid. No one told me about the bone density issue with it, I am 65 so have Drug Induced OP that could have been slowed or prevented. My back takes the brunt of injuries so far.

The first wave of docs left/are leaving due to the absurd electronic information collection requirements of 0SocialistCare.
The next wave to leave will be due to the lack of payment for certain tests/treatments.
The final exodus (of the decent docs) will be when treatment of the Medicaid expansion patient load is mandated.
It will be a dual system. The politicians and celebrities and other very wealthy will be able to afford paying premiums for crap healthcare they won’t use, as well as pay for high quality doctors.
The rest of us will get the lousy healthcare we’re forced to pay for.
An office liberal grew up fairly wealthy in Portugal. I tried to explain to him the mechanisms of Barrycare that will cause our healthcare to circle the toilet. His response was that you didn’t have to use the gubmint healthcare...because growing up in Portugal under a similar system, he had always gone to private doctors. Too dense to understand that since he is no longer in the wealthy class, he’s stuck with the rest of us serfs.
