When all of Americas top health insurers and providers met at the White House this week and pledged to save $2 trillion over the next decade in health costs they were pledging to sabotage our medical care. The blunt truth which everybody (the politicians and healthcare providers) agreed to keep quiet is that the only way to reduce these costs is to ration healthcare thereby destroying our system. Cutting Doctors fees will reduce access. Your doctor may not accept the government health plan. Congress is wanting to cut Medicare fees by 21 percent. Cuts in Medicare reimbursements will spill into the government health plan and ultimately limit the number of doctors and hospitals that will accept the government plan.
Much like the HMOs of the 80s your doctor access will be restricted to the few doctors who will accept the socialized plan.
Limiting the availability of doctors and hospitals will have many devastating effects. Most threatening are:
- Over crowding waiting rooms
- Backlog of medical testing i.e. CAT scans MRI PET scans etc...
- Rationing of Health Care
- Reduction of quality college students choosing medicine as a profession.
- With our aging population quality health care providers needed now more than ever.
We can pay with our lives. The federal government want us to believe they can mandate away 2 trillion dollars of medical expenses. We have learned from our friends from the north (the Canadians) the best way to reduce cost is to ration care.
Government bureaucrats will pour over data and decide what the best means of care will be for the largest number of patients. If medical condition differs from the government guidelines it will NOT be paid by the government.
Should your doctor(s) decide the government allowed treatment is not for you your doctors hands will be tied.
If you dont have the financial means to pay for your treatment elsewhere it could cost you your life. In Canada colonoscopies are rationed for colon cancer. Canadas colon cancer rate is 25 percent higher than in the U.S. even though Canadas population is smaller.
We know from history once a government program of this nature is passed whether it is a total failure or not it will NEVER be rescinded.
Solution:
Texans can reject and refuse to pay for the federal government health plan. Texas will attract the BEST trained MOST experienced doctors (and upcoming doctors) in the country. Texas will be the envy of every state in the union.
