Ever wonder why this isn't all over the news ????

I do see the connection. There is act. alot of discussion with the phys. I know of dropping accepting any type ins. coverage and going to a cash only basis.These are well respected and established phys. in our area.Most people don't even realize that when they pay their $50.00 co. they have paid 80 to 90% of a reg office visit. Were you can get into trouble is major medical HOSP/SURGICAL. and maintaince medications.Guess where the is the most gov. Regulation. Did you know medicare medicaid allow a phys 3 whole days for for a hosp and phys to get you treated and discharged to somewhere THEY DON'T CARE WHERE or they stop paying no matter how sick the person is. Not knocking at any one with the ins. just makeing a point that this is goverment controled ins .guess whatsince Mcaid /care set this as standard of care bluecross and other ins. companies now do it as well. We need to do anything we can to stop this take over from happening. I'm not sayig there is not problems being adressed but dose anyone relly want to be on a 22 month waiting list to have their crushing chest pain or brain tumor looked at?

going to cash would be good,then people would be real slow about runnen to the er or doctor for a cold. our local er is full of the same bunch a dick's looken for pain med's they can get with tenncare/taxcare as i like to call it.good worken people cant get it but the low life's get it free.
