tshile Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 In case you were wondering, no, it’s not a good idea to turn a wheelbarrow upside down on a huge fire to try to put it out 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

88Comrade2000 Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 May have seen death today? One of the patients at dialysis went into cardiac arrest today. He didn’t look alive when they wheeled him out. Will find out Wednesday if he made it or not. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, the people like me card is pulled. I work in the healthcare industry, universal healthcare would eliminate my job along with millions of others. And I also prefer to make a choice on which doctor I see, which office I decide to go to, etc. The government can't get Medicare or the VA right, both are a ****ing joke and you want them telling you where to go for healthcare and trust them making it as great as the options you have now? Take your own advice, move somewhere there is socialism and free government healthcare. 2 minutes ago, TryTheBeal! said: 20 years on and it’s totally shocking that the “tax the crap out of you so that a homeless tweaker can get the same healthcare as your mom” slogan hasn’t caught on.

Today you pay for your healthcare insurance and how much you pay determines the providers you have access to. Not every provider is in your network. In a system with universal coverage many will still choose to pay a higher cost because they want access to providers who are not participating in the universal coverage scheme.

Not every provider is in your network. In a system with universal coverage many will still choose to pay a higher cost because they want access to providers who are not participating in the universal coverage scheme. I'd rather have the option to see what provider is in my network or an out-of-network provider if I choose to do so. And while not every provider/facility is in-network with my plan, the vast majority are as they are with most of the national payers (BCBS, Aetna, Cigna, UHC, etc.). I don't trust the government to provide me with a plethora of options that I have now, or to not completely screw it up like they have with Medicare and the VA. Honestly, they need to fix what they broke with Medicare and the VA before even considering universal healthcare. And I'll go ahead and say this, just because I'm against universal healthcare, doesn't mean I don't want people to have affordable options and access to medical care, I 100% do. I would also like to see something done about the insane cost of healthcare in general (cost of procedures, medication, etc.). Like I said, fix what is broken first.

You may have made the same mistake I did and not realized what thread this is but this should be moved to a more appropriate thread. It isn’t RTT material. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
