My doc sees me for two to three minutes per visit and charges medicare for an “extended visit”, every time.

$130, medicare pays 80%, I pay 20%.

Your doctor charges medicare for an extended visit and sees you for tow minutes.

In 1982, Hospitals were told that doctors had been ripping off medicare to the extent that it was bankrupt and that patients were actually going to have to shorten hospital stays and that the governmnet would be in charge of that, overseeing the insurance industry who would make the call.

No, let’s go back to the inception of medicare and government insurance, lest any one think that the government getting into health care is from obamacare. No.

And insurance has jumped on the overpricing wagon.

Now look at how your doctor doesn’t mind letting you know he is ripping off the government. All the excuses and rationale point to the same mentality as that of the looters in Furguson. It’s ‘free’ because it is owed to us. Doctors do the same thing.

Over 60 years.

Now, medicine in this country says it’s the best.

THe best what?

It thrives on sick people. it operates on pharmaceuticals and testing equipment.

It’s funded by insurance companies, private and government, and overseen by doctors who historically and provably have no clue how to manage administration nor economics.

Now it is not only bankrupt but running up exorbitant bills.

Four patients at a local university hospital yesterday I saw. All four had private rooms. THe new architectural planning for these places state that private rooms are best for whatever. giving into the breakdown in society, not even a four bed room. People cant get along.

These four people, all in their ‘50s, and early sixties. two have cirrhosis, one has a head injury, another is 600 pounds, three are on morphine. One is screaming that the dialysis is not being initiated quickly enough.

None have jobs. None have visitors none have families none have jobs.

They’re in there fro a week, two are on their way to institutional homes where they will continue screaming for benefits, and complain about the lack of immediacy. They cost the medical industry about ten thousand a day give or take a few thousand.

They are on enormous amounts of pharmaceuticals.

They are being paid and treated like gold for having spent their lives abusing themselves.

None of them has worked in many years.

Anyone with a stich of sense common to an eight year old could tell you this system would run out of money

Take any hospital unit. It is not a healing environment. regardless of the economics, doctors and the system do not operate to heal, to fix the situation, to prevent disease nor to allow the patient to have any part of it.

It is NOT a good system, and very soon it will be out of borrowing power. Obama took advantage of it, but his system was too idiotic.

americans don’t eat right, they are on pharmaceuticals and they don’t exercise.

The medical system operates best with that.

but it does not work.

And it is long out of money.
