House Health-Care Bill Would Establish 'Medical Homes' for the Elderly and Disabled

The socialist universal health care bills proposed in the House and Senate are unconstitutional. No where in Article I Section 8 is the power to regulate health care listed. Let you Congress critters know! Toll free capital switchboard numbers are below.

Sounds good. Send Granny off to be exterminated as a drag on the collective. It is for the good of the Hive. Yikes these liberals are reminding me of the BORG in Star Trek. “We will assimilate”. Time for escape plans.

These people are scumbags. They are creating the equivalent of Nazi death camps. The American Holocaust is expanding from mass murder of our innocent unborn to the mass murder of the elderly and handicapped.

“Evidence-based medicine may provide transitory savings in the short term, but the same patient who takes the cheapest available statin today may very well be the patient costing you -- the taxpayer, the policymaker, the thought-leader, the sister, the spouse -- big bucks when that patient ends up in the hospital because of improperly treated cardiovascular disease,”

No, they're not going to cost the taxpayer, because they'll have to do their duty to the State to die.

[. . .EBM now is being distorted by government bureaucrats and HMOs in ways that impose top-down, one-size-fits-all restrictions on patients and their healthcare providers.”]

This provides the perfect setting to conduct experiments in treating patients with healthcare robots.

Not only that, they will use this as a platform to perform abortions. One of ObaMao’s staff members said that a child born is not “Human” until he or she displays “proper social traits”. Which must mean that even after born, a human child can still be “aborted” for the “Greater Good”.

This administration is purely evil. It is as simple as that.

I get your inference, but I wonder what will happen to someone (like me) who won't succumb to MANDATORY HEALTH INSURANCE?

It IS possible to live without having taxable income. Not as free or as pleasant as now, but do able.

All this to "insure" (or ensure), but not provide health care, for a small percentage of our population.

Certainly seems contrary to the Hippocratic Oath.

..unfortunately my bother passed 5 years ago.
He had an operation and was put in a “recovery” facility
three days after the operation. While there he had clothes stolen,bandages that were supposed to be changed daily WERE NOT, a doctor, one of his surgeons, went berserk when he witnessed the poor care he got....
After I was allowed to “break him out”, I got him home to his apartment where HE wanted to be. We both knew what the end results were going to be, but I was determine that he wasn't going to be subjected to shoddy medical care and wind up with more to deal with then the cards he was dealt.

In Communism everything is free. But there isn’t any of it. Case closed.

I'm sure that the AARP will get the elderly to stop off at the polling places to vote for this and other leftist schemes one last time on their way to these "medical homes." Hey, the dead can't ask for a refund of their annual dues.

Calling these hellholes “medical homes” is like calling the Nazi concentration camp ovens “warming rooms for the Jews.”

Actually, they’d create just a bunch of screening sites for the death camps.

The “Patient Centered Medical Home” is the name of a well-meaning scheme to re-create the solo family doctor type of care within big practices. The “team” would be bound by all sorts of protocols and electronic reminders to follow up and follow through, so that a patient is more likely to be followed by the same people, less likely to fall through the cracks or get the run around through unnecessary and redundant tests, sub-specialists, etc.

The problem, in addition to the assumption in Washington that you’re only worth your next donation to the DNC, is that the bill would allow these PCMH’s to be headed by nurse practitioners, not just family docs, internal medicine docs or pediatricians.

They would also probably be lumped in with a local hospital and out patient care group to ‘manage’ the patients’ disease care:
30 day bundling of hospital and post-hospital care.
Bullet points to be met for each disease classification.
Step wise “evidence based” medication and therapy, with little recourse for those of us who don’t fit the protocol or who wish to skip a few steps, even if we can afford to pay out of pocket.

And, yes, 4 States allow “physician assisted death” (which still stinks of suicide and murder, no matter what you call it).

Some docs will probably find ourselves practicing under ground, eventually. And if our experience with Shalala (who threatened to prosecute Medicare patients who dared to pay their own money) is any indication, the patients will have to find a back alley doctor, too.

Certainly seems contrary to the Hippocratic Oath.

..an Oath means nothing to an narcissistic socialistic dictator like you witnessed on Jan 20,2009. Many doctors are leaving the often mentioned AMA because of very recent decisions.

The Obama version won't even have a doctor in the house. Only Mengele's assistants will be available. You can guess what level of twisted care that will result in.
