Exactly
and in case some of us havent been paying attention:
- Drs have begun scaling back their practices because they cannot afford the liability costs or the rising insurance costs..this has been happening since 2004
- Some of US can't afford to go due to rising premiums
- Medicare has been a mess for years even with the reforms
- Wonder why you see so many homeless people? Check the mental institutions where some of those folks should have been. When insurance runs out or can't afford to prolong their care,there is no place to put them BUT out on the streets.
(whole 'nother thread...believe me!)
We may have the 'best' healthcare in the world but many of us can't afford it on BOTH sides...patients and providers.
