Well there is other stuff needing addressing like liability reform
You just don't like JUDGES judging, do you? You want to take away their ability to sentence people, and now you want to take away their ability to AWARD injured people.. You think people like Ted Cruz ought to be able to decide how much an injury is worth...
Nahhh... That's going to give your darling business's carte blanche to hurt as many people as they want... Nahhh... That ain't America..

There were numerous projections about what these exchanges — which, by the way, did not exist before, including the multitude of plans that will not be available to consumers that did not, that were not in place before. So, obviously, this is not an apples-to-apples. It’s a, you know, apple full of worms compared to an apple that’s fresh and delicious…
Not even Liberalland lovesObamacare... according to the 9-26-2013 Express, lower right, page 15 (a Washington comPost publication)... in 2010 Washington DC had 918 active primary care physicians reporting to the board... today there are only 453 that even spend more than 20 hours a week seeing patients at all.

They don't have it in their online version to link but its in their print copy today. Good luck finding a doctor.
The beauty of America is people can make choices. If doctors want to pick customers, let them. We have needed more doctors and nurses for years any way, and health care is a growth industry.
Obamacare offers no choices.Quote:

Obama can claim responsibility for this. Hope he's proud.
That's a false statement, according to the state exchange websites I have visited. Obviously you have not. Start with Kentucky.
Dream on... this was in today's newspaper... published by the Washington comPost which is a VERY liberal publication.Quote:

I understand a law that helps millions of people mostly poor isn't what's popular with you conservatives. But you guys have been crying about Obama care for years now.
Democrats worked with Republicans to make Medicare part D work, to bad the repubs refuse to do the same thing.
4 more days, and then we will see.
The chance to work with Republicans was when the Obamacare bill was being written.. But no... they had to be crooked and ram it through without a vote.Quote:

Standard Plan Benefits
Starting in 2014, all health insurance plans are required to provide a certain level of standard benefits known as Essential Health Benefits. The federal Affordable Care requires that all health plans offered in the individual and small group markets must provide these items and services. These benefits fit into the following 10 categories:
Ambulatory patient services
Emergency services
Hospitalization
Maternity and newborn care
Mental health and substance use disorder services, including behavioral health treatment
Prescription drugs
Rehabilitative and habilitative services and devices
Laboratory services
Preventive and wellness services and chronic disease management
Pediatric services, including dental and vision care
Levels of Coverage
Washington Healthplanfinder will allow shoppers to find a plan that fits their needs and their budget by offering side-by-side comparisons of health plans based on a variety of factors such as cost, quality and physician networks. Plan options will be broken down into metal tiers including Gold, Silver and Bronze based on the level of coverage they provide:
Gold Plans: Gold plans cover 80 percent of the cost of essential health benefits, while the patient pays 20 percent.
Silver Plans: Silver plans cover 70 percent of the cost of essential health benefits, while the patient pays 30 percent.
Bronze Plans: Bronze plans cover 60 percent of the cost of essential health benefits, while the patient pay 40 percent.
All plans on Washington Healthplanfinder will have new limits on out-of-pocket costs, including deductibles and co-payments, of $6,350 for an individual and $12,700 for a family.
"A "catastrophic" plan will also be offered. This is a type of health care plan only available through Washington Healthplanfinder for individuals under age 30. This type of plan generally offers the least coverage with the lowest monthly premiums.
