How CommieCare Will Affect Your Doctor


Posted: Aug 18, 2010

Wall Street Journal.  This is from '09 but is well worth the read.

Find out how CommieCare will affect your doctor (and/or CLIENT).  The news is NOT good!

As expected, as expenses soar many private-practice docs will be DRIVEN OUT OF BUSINESS, which of course, has been the plan all along as we move toward centralized medicine.

CommieCare SupportersMar 21, 2010
Three questions for you CommieCare supporters: 1)  17,000 new IRS agents, not a single DOLLAR for a nurse or doctor.  Yet at least 1/3 of docs (depending upon which poll) say that they will QUIT if this passes.  Also add in MILLIONS into the "system," then another 13 million at LEAST (more like 25-30) for ILLEGAL ALIENS.  Just WHO is going to take care of this massive influx of new patients, not to mention the ones we already have -- the IRS? 2)  Would you take a job w ...

This was discussed before the vote, but of course most MSM (lefty) outlets WERE NOT discussing this aspect of CommieCare.  Even if they had, how many drinkng the Obama Kool-Aid would have listened?  REMEMBER that uninsured patients mean loss of income for our employers. http://capoliticaln ews.com/blog_ post/show/ 5343Obamacare ends Insurance for one million poorin SeptemberWritten by CAPolitical News on June 08, 2010, 04:51 PMHealth law could ban low-cost plansBy: Jennifer Haberkorn, ...

MTSOs Can't Survive CommieCareAug 18, 2010
HOW can MTSOs possibly survive this? "Doctors, meanwhile, are selling their practices to local hospitals. In 2005, doctors owned more than two-thirds of all medical practices. By next year, more than 60% of physicians will be salaried employees. About a third of those will be working for hospitals, according to the American Medical Association. A review of the open job searches held by one of the country's largest physician-recruiting firms shows that nearly 50% are for jobs in hospitals, ...

Did This Doctor Come On To Me?Jun 07, 2011
I have been having hand and wrist problems and needed to go in for a nerve conduction study.  The doctor who performed it is very attractive, charismatic and intense.  I'm not a flirt at all, lol, in fact rather stoic and more on the intellectual side (if you want to call it that, i'm just the extreme opposite to charismatic).  So, he tells me to lay down on the table, and sort of said it with an embarrassed smile.  I could tell he was embarrassed to say that.  ...

Doctor AdviceApr 19, 2010
Do any of you not get the annual tests done that your doctor advises?  I am getting tired of always explaining why I won't get a mammogram, pelvic exam or colonoscopy.  He gets very perturbed with me but I am a true believer that the patient has to take responsibility for their medical care or else the doctor will test you for everything under the sun, especially if you have insurance (which I do).  He always says "what does it matter to you, it's not your money".  ...

Do Doctor's Visit Really Cost This Much?Sep 08, 2016
So, I'm one of those people generally don't go to the doctor unless they are spurting blood across the room, but... A couple months ago, I found a lump in my breast, so I made an appointment with a GYN. I went there, they had me leave a urine sample, he felt the lump, wrote me a referral to a breast surgeon and for a mammogram/ultrasound and told me it would definitely need to be biopsied (freaking me out some more) and that was it. I had the mammogram/ultrasound. His office call ...

Pray A Doctor Will Step Up.Sep 20, 2010
My husband has had eight surgeries in the past three years to repair damage done to him during a pituitary tumor removal surgery. We are in desperate need of a neurosurgeon and an ENT that would be willing to be our expert witnesses in the lawsuit. We really aren't ones to sue, but this has changed our lives forever, as my husband will never be able to work again, and has gone through more than most people can even imagine! Any and all prayers will be greatly appreciated. I know God has a p ...

Need Advice On Reporting A DoctorJun 18, 2012
A member of my family has been on pain medication for about five years now.  It started with OxyContin and has slowly progressed to a combination of OxyContin, Oxycodone, Roxycontin, Percocet, and Fentanyl patches - all used on a regular basis, some for breakthrough pain.  This family member does have several medical conditions that do cause her pain, but DH and I have been thinking for a while that this amount of medication seems a bit much.  We found out that the doctor prescri ...

Fake Doctor Notes Being Handed Out In WIFeb 21, 2011
This is apalling that "doctors" would do this. I have a feeling they are not real physicians, but they are handing out these notes to anyone who needs one.  Really teaching our children right, aren't they? This is disgusting! Those that show up with those notes should be FIRED IMMEDIATELY. It's bad enough that this is an illegal strike, although they don't call it a strike, but it is just as bad.

Any Tips On Finding Decent Doctor?Jul 08, 2010
Went to a new doc after many years of not going.  As I was speaking of a series of upsetting deaths and started to cry a tiny bit, he just kept clicking away on his lap top (and maybe nodded a couple times).  Aside from that, my TSH was in the normal range (but near one end) and no free T3 or T4 were done, but I have had numerous thyroid symptoms for 12 years or so (didn't realize they correlated for several years and never had it assessed).  He said my TSH was VERY normal so ...
