Followup on previous post – California: Obamacare Turning Cancer Patients Away.
The Los Angeles Times reports that once Obamacare customers navigate the confusing websites and pay the (often higher) premiums, they face a new problem: many doctors do not accept Obamacare insurance policies. It tells the story of a cancer patient who was turned away at the oncologist’s office, and was only seen by a doctor once state regulators came to her rescue. Her story is not alone: millions will face the same problem. (emphasis added)
There are two reasons patients will be turned away: one that President Barack Obama hid, and one that he lied about. The first is that there is a shortage of doctors. There simply are not enough doctors (or nurses) to see a population of patients that grows bigger, suddenly, by some 30 million people (in theory). The second reason: insurance companies have to cut certain doctors and hospitals out of their plans in order to keep prices within a reasonable range while still covering all the things the law requires. So you can’t necessarily “keep your doctor.”
Just wait until companies start pushing their employees into Obamacare.
