I think that many of the Christian health shares do not cover pre existing conditions (at least for a certain time). I looked into Samaritan Health and I don’t think it did.

“Hate to say it, but when I am canceled, and it’s coming I’m sure... I will do the same. No coverage is better than giving my life to Obama. Maybe I need an attitude adjustment but for now, I will not go willingly and will die willingly if it comes to that.”

I told the wife when it is my turn, Take me to the beach, put me on a lounge chair and let me go. Tack the 25 dollar fine for littering to my lapel.

BO is a cold, diabolical spawn of satan. And I'm being generous. This patient chose to believe the lies pouring forth from this serpent's mouth, and now he's saving $150 a month on that old policy, just not in the way he envisioned.

The devil is in the details. The demonic hordes are grinning ear to ear.

Revelation 12:15-17

15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.
16 And the earth (land) helped the woman, and the earth (land) opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth.
17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

Your assumption is that people understand that? You must have more faith in our co-nationals than I do. I suspect that Palin’s comment about death panels is yet not resounding for this guy. I hope that I’m wrong.

“it might be better for some people to take a pill.”


I despise Obama but in some cases taking a pill WOULD be better than prolonging the inevitable.

Palliative care is often the way to go.

If I had a cancer diagnosis, I would want the pain meds and that’s all. Theres no point in going bankrupt in order to add another six months to my life. The Lord would be calling me home and who am I to resist? In fact, why would I want to resist?

I’m hoping more and more even the LIV come to realize that elections really do have consequences.

I don’t think it was desperation that made him vote 0bama. I think he did it because he was a liberal and has long believed that ‘healthcare is a basic human right’. Would that I were wrong!

I have seriously started to question whether it is worth even getting the screenings anymore? Is it even affordable to do so?

To All

To see how the death panels work in the UK NHS system of socialized medicine...

Google:

Liverpool Pathway Controversy

And read some of the articles in the UK Daily Mail or Telegraph.

Seems this program is about to be cancelled due to public outcry...

Just euthanizing tens of thousands a year in UK.

Giving new and poignant meaning to Obozo’s brag about being good at killing people.

Death is always inevitable.
The issue is not taking a Pill, the issue is the Government forcing you to take a Pill rather than fight for your Life.

I have Leukemia. When the time comes I will make that decision, not a Government Bureaucrat.

I think you missed the point.

That is your decision, not Obama’s.

That is the point. To each his own.

Medishare appears to be the worst in that regard. But Samaritan Ministries actually has an extra giving fund where they can address any otherwise uncovered medical expense, including preexisting conditions. Christian Healthcare Ministries will handle preexisting conditions IF they go to maintenance care and there is a new incident after coming under coverage. This is the group to which I belong. Sure, its not the same as having a contract for payment, but its better than either slavery to Obamacare or quitting prematurely. JMHO.

I agree precisely and even said that to a family practitioner in so many words when I refused a colonoscopy (for the 7th time). They wrote me up for "mental health problem".

Considering how many cancers are survivable (I’ve been alive for 30+ years since my treatment - it was hellish, but here I am) I think you would want more info before making any such statement.

If I lost my insurance through work, I would go to one of the ministries first. My biggest problem is “maintenance” prescriptions which would not be covered by Samaritan Ministries. But it would still be cheaper than the new health care policies coming down the pike.

“like bammy’s wannabe-chatty granny got a painkiller the night before his election”

She got real dead, real quick. Just like the guy that accessed bammy’s social security records.

To paraphrase Nancy P, we have to implement ObamaCare to know who it will kill and how bad it is.

ObamaCare was too important for the Democrats to pass to worry about if it would work or who it would harm. Socialized medicine and steps toward universal healthcare are a religious issue to Democrats and progressives. It doesn't matter who it kills or how many families it destroys. The end (universal healthcare of poor quality) justifies everything to them.

I had a conversation with a liberal friend of mine. He is most concerned about how bad ObamaCare is turning out to be. He said that the real villian was Ted Kennedy who didn't seal the deal with Richard Nixon on implementing a health care plan in the 1970’s.
