American College of Physicians on ACA

Obama Wants to Exploit Physicians not Listen to Them Doctors Treated to Abuse at White House and by Democrats in Congress. By El Marco, 3/10/2010 – Americans recall how Obama amazed the nation with his straw-man characterizations of doctors who perform unnecessary amputations and tonsillectomies out of greed. What people don’t know is how doctors have been mistreated behind closed doors by the White House and by Democrats in Congress. Here are two stori ...

This article on the mass exodus of physicians post Obamacare is a few years old, but I found the Comments section quite interesting. Docs describe "feeling like slaves," a new low record of visit time (30 seconds), etc. With only 1 or 2 exceptions, these docs HATE EHR and the time that it consumes (which is why so many have/are retired/retiring). They also talk about the onerous regulations that the feds have placed on them, plus the shrinking reimbursements. Not new in genera ...

The program would be funded by the savings obtained from replacing today’s inefficient, profit-oriented, multiple insurance payers with a single streamlined, nonprofit, public payer, and by modest new taxes based on ability to pay. Premiums would disappear; 95 percent of all households would save money. Patients would no longer face financial barriers to care such as co-pays and deductibles, and would regain free choice of doctor and hospital. Doctors would regain autonomy over patient care. ...

Went to see my primary care physician yesterday, the first time in over a year, had been seeing his NP or whatever her title is. I want to start a new diet at the beginning of the year and the place asks for a doctor's statement saying ok. While there I discussed the events of the past year, also took MRI reports, etc. verifying some of these things that they could put in the chart and told him diagosed with polycystic kidney disease and he looked at a report from 2 years ago saying multipl ...

My daughter's doctor started a concierge practice, where he will see only certain patients who agree to pay thousands of dollars up front. She lives in Colorado. Friends of mine from Pennsylvania said their doctor is doing the same thing. Has anyone heard of any other physicians doing the same thing? ...

the people who hold them are getting wage cuts instead of increases. We're ALL in trouble. From the Washington Post: "The stagnation of wages has become an accepted fact across the political spectrum; conservative columnists such as Michael Gerson and David Brooks have acknowledged that workers’ incomes seem to be stuck." "Defenders of right-to-work laws argue that they improve a state’s economy by creating more jobs. But an exhaustive study by economist Lo ...

I signed both of my boys up today for classes at the community college. Thank goodness I have a Pell grant for both of them that pays most of their tuition because books for 6 classes cost $800!!!!! Yes I said 800, that was not a typo for only six classes. Luckily, the 7th class my son already had the book from his previous calc class and they are using the same book this semester. I could not believe that they told me that one of the books I could buy a new one for $157 ...

First, it would be means-tested. No assistance would be offered to families who don't need it, and for those eligible for assistance, the amount would be based on the level of need. Families at the poverty level would receive the greatest assistance and the amount would decrease as the family income level increases until hitting the "wealthy"cutoff of no assistance. Second, assistance would be based on the residual need AFTER taking into account scholarships or grants, if ...

I signed up for a couple of classes for the Spring semester and looking around on the internet, I found the books are cheaper on the internet than at the college. (And the books at the college are used also). Just wondered if anyone ever did this and had an ok experience with it. Thanks! ...

I almost forgot. I was hoping this would be the last year for me, but I think DD2 is going to school for one more year to get a second diploma/degree in GIS so I will probably have one more time to do this. UGH! ...

Hello all - my daughter will be starting college in the fall and we are in the process of trying to find financial aid. Does anyone have info on how to get grants? Is there usually a family income max that would allow/disallow anyone from getting a grant? I know I will need to talk to the college's financial aid office but any info that can be passed along would be appreciated. We already completed the FAFSA and my daughter got a small loan through that, but she was not awarded any gran ...

I don't come on here very often but wanted to acknowledge that I saw your replies below. I have completed the FAFSA and my daughter was able to get a very small unsubsidized loan, but not even enough to cover one semester. I will try the suggestion of the forum. My daughter will be going to a university and the realization of how much money this is going to cost is overwhelming... and then to think that all that money will be spent and she may not even be able to get ...

I was let go from IMedX for not flexing due to low work on day shift. Sorry, but I can't flex late night/overnight hours due to having a 4-year-old. She comes first. Transtech was understanding but this IMedX bunch is ruthless. I have a new IC part-time job now with plenty of work during the day, M-F w/rotating weekends, where I'm treated fairly and the pay is good. This is to pay bills and help with tuition. I just registered for my first class sinc ...

I am 39 years old wanting to go back to college to become an RN. I will start out for the first 2 years at the community college to finish those basic courses I didn't do 20 years ago. When I went to school back right after high school my parents dealt with the financial aid. Now that I am looking at it there are so many resources apparently out there to help find grant money and scholarships, but I'm getting nowhere, and more confused. FIRST QUESTION: I ...

Valentine show: Heard discussion yesterday that 2 years free college would destroy the established colleges, as everyone would go to the first 2 years for free and there would be no freshmen or sophomores. Also that these people would not be prepared and many would fail and it would be a waste of money. Interview included a public school administrator suggesting that the problem is K-12 and not P-14. (He said that Obama's proposals for pre-K and 2 years free junior colleg ...
