Got Obamacare, can't find doctors
Terri Durheim and her family now have health insurance, thanks to Obamacare. What they don't have are local doctors and hospitals who will take it.
This worries the Enid, Okla., resident since she has a teenage son with a serious heart condition. They now have to find a pediatric cardiologist in Oklahoma City, more than an hour away.
And if there's an emergency ... "obviously we'd have to pay out of pocket and go here in town, but that defeats the purpose of insurance. I'm truly grateful we have insurance. It's reasonable and affordable, but it's not doing me a lot of good," said Durheim, who just had to drive 90 minutes to Stillwater, Okla., for a CAT scan for herself. "It's so frustrating."
Like Durheim, many Americans who've enrolled on the Obamacare exchanges are realizing they have access to a relatively limited set of doctors and hospitals. In many areas, the largest hospitals are not participating and many doctors are not accepting the coverage.
Last year, 33% of the offerings contained narrow networks. This year, the same carriers are offering more policies, but 68% of the options have limited networks.

We’re one week from the biggest ObamaCare deadline yet. After March 31, every American will be required by law to have health insurance or pay a hefty fine. President Obama has maintained all along that despite giving carve outs and exemptions to his allies in big business and big labor, he really will let the hammer fall on ordinary Americans who do not obey. We’ll see, but Fox News First bets that stories from uninsured citizens, like these collected by the Associated Press, will continue to pump up the election-year pressure on the president and his party to delay or defang the central provision of his long-suffering law.
A glib comment, a chuckle and then to "roll over and take it like a prison bitch".

Re: Three days..Three weeks..Three months..
Apparently, the GOP is now convinced that they can just run ads featuring examples of those demographic groups that hate them at the polls, and their message will be magically accepted by those groups. To wit, they ran a series of ads with a 'hipster', who, as it turns out, is actually a pampered brat, whose current job is funded by the National Endowment for the Arts(a group the GOP consistently attempts to de-fund, ironically enough). The ad fails, if one can judge by the 15-1 negative/positive feedback on youtube. Best comment I read it the one quoted below, which sums up the Grand Old Party's longterm issues:
"My American Dream is one where women have control of their own bodies, very narrow religious morality isn't legislated, consenting adults can marry whoever they want, minorities aren't constantly demonized either overtly or through dog-whistle code words, where greed at the expense of human life and dignity are punished rather than rewarded, where scientific consensus is understood and accepted and where everyone feels it is their civic duty to help their brothers and sisters rise to their level rather than stamp them down into the dirt to elevate themselves.
This is why I will never vote Republican. Your party is an unholy marriage between the remnants of the Moral Majority, the southern racists that joined your party after Nixon courted them and Gordon Gekko. No. F***ing. Thanks"
