How Doctors feel about Obamacare

[Wullie]

Just got off the phone with a buddy of mine who is a hostpital adminstrator for Banner. I pointed him to this thread. He wanted to know who the dumbfuck was who's name was Slick. Seriously.

Just our friendly East coast socialista.

Went to my yearly check up at the VA today. BRAND new facility, 4 times as big as the old one. Bright, shiny etc etc. Got to see my appointed Dr. She's and Indian lady that doesn't listen to well. Told her about the problem with my shoulder. She asked if I was allergic to aspirin or ibuprofen or tylenol. I told No to aspirin but yes to ibuprofen. Got blood drawn, flu and pneumonia shot, X-rays on shoulder, and a prescription for some non steroid anti-inflammatory drug. Picked up my junk and decided to read the warnings on the dope. DO NOT TAKE IF ALLERGIC TO IBUPROFEN...............................................

Got a bad staph infection after some minor surgery at the VA last year, the waited a week before prescribing anti biotics. That turned in a real ordeal before it got sorted out.

The VA is Government run health care. Everybody can expect that kind of treatment or worse with obammycare.

"The charge? $380 and $150 for the shot. ( I don't pay for it)"

Not trying to pry? Who does pay for it?

My insurance.

Not Medicare.

Respectfully, who pays your insurance?

Those who over paid for the trucks I sold.

Called my FRIENDLY VA today. Told them of the issue. Their reply was " Give your phone number and the Dr will call you back shortly." That was at 0830hrs. The phone hasn't rung, it's probably them.

the point is, what does it contribute to the debate to cite a 'friend' as a reference to merely bad-mouth me.
If he has some counterpoints that you could mouth for him, go at it. Otherwise, just a pointless ad hominem.
To his credit, Pud managed to avoid that and you should be able to as well.

How many times do I have to tell you that I have no interest in debating you any more. Even with proof you refuse to admit you're wrong and if any kind of story comes from Fox News or any source that has criticized the left (ever) you say it's a non issue.

The point is my buddy who is in the trenches (not a lab douche like you) and who sees what happens every day in a huge hospital says that Obamacare is gonna fuck things up then I believe it. He's an administrator, in much the same field as you are except he's not some schlub in a lab.
