Buffalo_Gal Posted May 28, 2019 Posted May 28, 2019 2 2 hours ago, Doc Brown said: Hence the appeal of single payer as the old system sucked and the ACA has been good for some but bad for others. Not with that attitude. So, it would be a lot like the ACA with a little tweaking. Just throw more government money at it to protect people with preexisting conditions. Premiums for healthy people on the open market were lower pre ACA because insurance companies could deny those with pre existing conditions. What is the better plan you think Republicans can come up with? There is no appeal for single payer for people who want government out of their lives. Medical insurance prior to ObamaCare was ok, provided you were willing to pay for medical insurance. Medical insurance post-ObamaCare has been horrific. As someone who pays their own insurance, ObamaCare has been simply horrible. Prior to that, I had insurance via my husband's company, so I knew how both ends of how corporate insurance worked when given as a benefit to employees, and as the "employee". The corporate-pay part came out of the bottom-line for us and insurance coverage was always a "fun" decision pre-ObamaCare, and an Obamanation (Wow! the urban dictionary definitions for that word are not kind) afterward. To sit down and be shown the wretched "choices" now "allowed" by ObamaCare, along with the increased costs, well, at the very least ObamaCare has been an economic nightmare. I'd take the pre-ObamaCare health insurance costs and availability policies any day of the week. The last thing anyone should want is more government involvement with health insurance (except for allowing it to be purchased across state lines). It never seems to go well for American citizens. 1

Tiberius Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 But not in the the states that did not expand coverage. Those people did not see an improvement in cancer treatment. The "pro-life" crowd made sure of that. Quote “New studies suggest the 2010 Affordable Care Act has modestly improved Americans’ timely access to cancer treatment, and may have smoothed some racial disparities in patient access. Researchers said the health law’s expansion of insurance coverage, including the enlargement of the government Medicaid insurance program for lower-income people in many states, boosted rates of diagnosis and treatment of patients with certain cancers at earlier stages.” https://www.wsj.com/articles/health-law-improved-access-to-cancer-treatment-studies-show-11559475001?mod=hp_lead_pos11

B-Man Posted June 5, 2019 Posted June 5, 2019 $586 Billion Later, Health Care Is Worse Than Before Obamacare Issues & Insights, by John Merline Original Article "I am not the first President to take up this cause, but I am determined to be the last.” That was how then-President Barack Obama pitched Obamacare to a joint session of Congress on Sept. 9, 2009. He described a health care system in crisis and promised that his reforms would “provide more security and stability to those who have health insurance. It will provide insurance for those who don’t. And it will slow the growth of health care costs for our families, our businesses, and our government.” Nearly a decade after having his vision realized, how have his promises worked out? 1

B-Man Posted June 19, 2019 Posted June 19, 2019 Trump Just Revolutionized Health Care — And Nobody Noticed Issues & Insights, by The Editorial Board Original Article Few have ever heard of “Health Reimbursement Accounts,” but they could fundamentally change the nation’s health care system — for the better — and destroy the Democrats’ case for socialized health care. Late last week, the Trump administration finalized rules that will let companies put money into tax-exempt HRAs that their employees could then used to buy an individual insurance plan on their own. Seems like no big deal, right? Except it will start to unravel a 77-year-old policy mistake that is largely responsible for many of the problems the health care system suffers today.
