She told Sean Hannity that she read the bill cover-to-cover twice.

The woman is smart as a tack.

I meant “sharp” not “smart”.

Betsy McCoy got the short shrift from RINO Gov Pataki

She should have been in charge, not him

Go Betsy.
She has done a tremendous job on this issue. Hannity asked her last week if she would consider running for office and she said no “I just work in hospitals to prevent infections”.

They’re really going after her big time ... on a personal level. It’s sad because she makes perfectly logical points whether or not you agree with her POV or not. She shoots straight.

The thing I wish she (or someone) would bring bring up is: Why is this the only doctor-patient conversation that is singled out in HR 3200? Surely there are hundreds of thousands of possible conversations patients can voluntarily have with their doctors ... and their doctors can be paid for their time with the patient no matter what they discuss in the consultation.

Sure, the doctor and patient could discus fishing or something and bill the insurance company and/or government for the time spent on that conversation ... but unless we’re going to videotape every doctor-patient conversation and submit it with the bill, how would you enforce that?

That’s why it makes no logical sense to single out this ONE possible doctor-patient conversation and go on at length about it in HR-3200. If “it’s just about billing” then why is just this conversation detailed in the bill?

Why not outline every allowably “billable” conversation a doctor can have with a patient?
