TennCare covers 25% of Tennessee's population..and it is about to BANKRUPT the state. This is what National Health Care..i.e. shillary Care would do to our Federal budget.

To Bredesen's credit, he has identified the prescription plan as one of the most abused plans in the U.S. Some Tenncare patients are getting 65 prescriptions a month. I have seen people on their deathbed who didn't get 65 prescriptions a month. The problem is that there are absolutely NO restrictions on the system and that there is NO co-pay at all! If they would implement a $5 co-pay for generic and a $10 co-pay for brand name, the would cut the prescription drug cost in half.

I believe it was the sensible citizens of Oregon who voted against any socialized medical care for their state.
Slowly as the results of these 'experiments' are becoming clear, people are waking up to the disaster any such government run health care plan is to their health and well being.

"If we do this the state of Tennessee has no credibility," Ford said. Too late.
