Trump's "brilliant" idea is to get rid of the concept of health insurance altogether and go back to the days where you only get a doctor if you can afford it. The whole reason we have health insurance is because most people couldn't afford it. That's not lowering the cost of health care for anyone except the healthy and wealthy.

See? That's a savings right there.

He said to me, "How can I run tests if you always say you feel fine?" I told him I have regular Medicare. Just run the tests. Even he's been conditioned to cut back on routine health care. Constantly being squeezed by the system. He told me, "Oh yes. We can order the tests." Plus, people die all the time after saying, "I feel great." Ticking time bomb. Anyways, my follow-up is t'mrrw. Hope it goes well.

Enough with the for-profit healthcare model.

Healthcare is not broken in the clinic.

It’s broken in the insurance system. It’s broken in the billing system that awards massive profits to insurance bureaucracies.

1. Don’t get sick.
2. If you do, die quickly.

The biggest crisis in health insurance isn't going to be the withdrawal of ACA. It's going to be the destruction of the CDC and hundreds - if not thousands of public health programs that quietly monitor/screen and coordinate responses to possible outbreaks. Vaccination programs have gone, and no employee or educational facility can require employees or students to be vaccinated or asked to mask.
Insurance premiums are largely calculated by risk. Diseases that were once regarded as eradicated are already making a comeback.

And since the risk is exponential, the calculations are far higher than you might imagine. On average, one person with measles transmits it to 12-18 people. Untreated TB, 10-15 people. Measles is contagious from 4 days after catching it - symptoms appear 7-21 days after contracting it. Insurance companies must budget for worst case scenarios - and are happy to.

Meanwhile, hospitals are forced (to an extent) to offer care to people who can not, or will not pay. They will try to recover their costs by raising prices on other services, and insurance companies will feel that too.

The GOP is doing for heath insurance, what climate change has done to home insurance in Florida.

The removed (higher level) staff and Committee panelists have essentially formed a "shadow health department" and have been advising and partnering with blue state "coalitions" to provide health recommendations for the participant states.

Destruction of the ACA will take us back to pre-2009, but on steroids due to the obsessive greed, and back to denials for those with "pre-existing conditions" (which in the past, included pregnancies).

There’s already a plan in place.

It’s called the ACA.

All Republicans need to do is fund and support it – which of course they won’t.

What a fat clown. So stupid, so inept. Ironically, the old fat f6ck calls a reporter "Piggy" while he's +280 lbs.
