Open heart surgery is one of the biggies, with certain expensive procedures like bone marrow transplants, or expensive drug trials ar readiliy available.<br /><br />I would have reformed the insurance industry here to a smaller extent but I would have totally opened Medicaid with all the money they splurged,<br /><br />The pharmaceutical industry needs severe overhaul. TV advertising is rediculous encouraging persons to demand the "latest" for conditions they have and the drug is really no vast improvement over existing drugs.<br /><br />And Malpractice simply has to be redefined in new terms. A life is priceless, but many a good doctor drops risky but perfectly legal procedures because of the proclivity of lawsuits, like baby delivery. <br /><br />Obama said you can keep your health insurance. The insurance response? Two friends lost theirs as company discontinued that version. <br /><br />Obama said taxes of persons under $200,000 would not go up. We received notice this week my husban'sd military retirement paycheck's withholding will go up %18.00/mo. in March, that's the salary with no COLA for 2 years now.<br /><br />These are not rumors,but real incidents in oury circle of friends and ourselves.<br /><br />Beware of promises that are too good to be true made by mortal man. On God's "too good to be true promises" are truth!NitWit1https://www.blogger.com/profile/07035004840443397537noreply@blogger.com
