US Healthcare means booming jobs in India (sm)

President Obama calls India a creator of U.S. jobs, not a poacher of U.S. jobs. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/11/06/obama-announces-billion-trade-deals-india/ I'd love to see him say that to a roomful of American medical transcriptionists who have lost their jobs, or can't find jobs, because of the transcription going to India! What is this man thinking???? ...

[Interested in a new line of work?] Excerpts from Washington Post article, link to artle below. "The legislators who drafted Obamacare wrestled with cosmic issues of health and spending, but here’s one consequence they didn’t foresee: a boom in demand for breast pumps that has left some retailers scrambling to keep up. Tucked within the Affordable Care Act is a provision requiring insurance companies to cover breast pumps and visits to lactation consultants at no cost to ...

healthiest half of the population consumes only 3% of health care costs. The only alternative would appear to be taxpayer subsidies. It is next to impossible, politically, to take away freebees once in place. Income redistribution continues to increase. The 2010 health law, also known as Obamacare, forced insurers to sell coverage to anyone, at the same price, regardless of their risk of incurring big claims. That provision was popular. Not so were rules requiring nearly everyone to have ins ...

Here is the contact list for the India Business Council from their own website: http://www.usibc.com/usibc/about/contact See how many US Chamber of Commerce personnel are listed? I do not understand how the partnership works between the India Business Council and the Chamber of Commerce, but it must be some sort of a division since the Director of the India Business Council is an employee of the US Chamber of Commerce. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wl/jobs/JS_JobSearchD ...

Is India going to be the 'new China'? It sounds like it with all the CEOs wanting to do business there with low labor costs. I'm thinking outsoursing MT work was just the beginning and we can yell all we want about it but our voices will be ignored. Although the headline states 'both sides hope to expand ties', with the low pay in India, how will they ever be able to afford American goods? I think this will turn out to be another one-sided deal, with the U.S. losing agai ...

Instead, about 250 Disney employees were told in late October that they would be laid off. Many of their jobs were transferred to immigrants on temporary visas for highly skilled technical workers, who were brought in by an outsourcing firm based in India. Over the next three months, some Disney employees were required to train their replacements to do the jobs they had lost. The chairman of the Walt Disney Company, Robert A. Iger, is co-chairman with Michael R. Bloomberg, the former mayo ...

So the girl is on vacation with her family. She is 15. Her mother let's her hang back with a 25 year old tour guide while the rest of the family moves on vacationing around. A big mistake. So the girl is found dead on the beach having been raped and murdered and the Indian authorities charge these guys with culpable homicide which means they could go free. So the laws in India don't have much teeth. Say so long to our medical record privacy and identity if this is the way they operate. ...

I was listening to a Chamber of Commerce guy talking about business last night. He was saying he would like to infuse more talent from India into our state (by bringing Indian workers here). He was talking about professionals, not factory and industrial workers). Okay. Maybe it is time to address the question, what do the Indian workers bring here that we do not have? I understand the outsourcing being cheap labor, but why are there so many Indian doctors, ...

http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_162-20021841-503544.html Earlier this week, the Press Trust of India reported that the United States will "be spending a whopping $200 million per day on President Barack Obama's visit" to Mumbai. The story lacked a named source, and the $200 million claim was credited to "a top official of the Maharashtra Government privy to the arrangements for the high-profile visit." The claim quickly gained traction on the right, thanks in part to a lin ...

I read a few articles from the India and Pakistan newspapers. Pakistan is not happy because of Obama's deals for planes for India. They have other concerns, too. Obama's India trip stirs fears in Pakistan about power balance ISLAMABAD, PAKISTAN - President Obama's decision to spend three days in India beginning Saturday, while bypassing Pakistan, has sparked anxiety among government officials here who warn that Obama risks upsetting the delicate balance of power between ...

Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign is attempting to silence a pro-Trump super-PAC called "Rebuild America Now." The campaign is lobbying television stations to pull an anti-Clinton ad, claiming that the 30 second spot "directly contracted by evidence in the public record." The ad, called "Outsourcing", takes Clinton to task for a speech she delivered in New Deli in which she praised outsourcing American jobs, and for a $5 million donation she received from Indian politician Amar Sin ...

Every MT needs to see this ad where HRC gives all out support to outsourcing while receiving $1 from India in 2008. It coincides with the decline of our industry where they sent all their doctors here and we sent them MT jobs. ...

I had Obamacare and even with the subsidy still could not afford it and was paying for nothing essentially because there was no way I would ever meet the deductible. To be forced to have to have something is not the answer and as awful as some think that the repeal and replace of Obamacare is, we have to do something and we have to start somewhere. Obamacare was meant to fail and did noone any favors and, by the way, we were LIED to. We have to have choices and competitio ...

Does anybody know how this might positively or negatively affect our jobs as transcriptionists. I haven't really been following the particulars of the bill that closely. ...

This healthcare bill only has a few good things in it, but it was passed so it can insure 30 million people in america that don't have health insurance. there are 300 million people in the united states. The healthcare bill is not about health care or insurance at all, it's about making the government more powerful. Now they can tax our behavior. It's about expansion of government. Exerting behavioral control over american people. Th ...

Insurance should cover prescription drugs, such as antibiotics, narcotics, antidepressants (how many here are on THOSE??) and birth control pills. Are birth control pills considered different b/c they're related to sex? Is that what it boils down to? I was put on them at 14 years old by my pediatrician. It wasn't covered; we had to get them at PP. Why wasn't it covered? If I'd had an infection, antibiotics would have been covered. A small percentage ...

I don't happen to think the new healthcare exchanges are political, happen to believe they belong on the health issues board because they will affect all of us. This article explains the value of Obamacare to me in that EVERYTHING IS CAPPED SO YOU DON'T PAY MORE THAN ~$6000/year. It also explains the meaning of the "10 essential benefits" insurers need to provide to qualify for Obamacare. It doesn't matter if your premiums go up a little or down, what matters to me is I get co-p ...

But one million more than before are covered. Woot! Woot! link ...

Quoting Ellis Winningham, economist. "...the fact is, the issue of universal healthcare doesn’t come down to compassion; it comes down to macroeconomic necessity (see fourth paragraph for an explanation).

My sister-in-law is in her mid 50's and not in good health; however, much (granted not all) of the problem is her lifestyle choice. She smokes at least a pack a day, she is sedentary to the point of using a lift chair, motorized scooter & cane to get around, she is at least 100 pounds overweight and her knees are problematic for her as there is too much weight on them. She had a nervous breakdown about 30 years ago after a bad breakup, and then about 10 years later she got d ...
