Yeah, but you see, she prolly did not know that. Lets face it. The democrats and the media hid all the the details of Obamacare and how it would work. For this to work, they should have spent the last 3 years on information so that people would understand it.
They did not because they know it sucks. It sucks and that is what pleases the democrats. They want people to suffer.
And that is what will happen. Sad thing if it is a member of your family. Expect no sorrow from them. Power is their goal. A coffin is the goal they plan for you and yours.

That being true, she could get 49 or so more X-rays and still have to pay for all of them .... of course, only at the lower negotiated rate!!!!!!

Since Ms. Galvez sought treatment in Alexandria, Virginia, she probably voted for Obama to rob her, and she probably thinks it is the Republicans who are robbing her! The Republicans and those evil, GREEDY, fat cat insurance companies!

Does ObamaCare pay 100% after the deductible or it is then on some kind of 70/30 for the remainder or the next 10 grand? Anyone know?I work for a medical facility. A patient told me about a week ago that her obamacare policy would be 50/50 after the deductible of 11,000 for her family is met. That is with a $750/mo premium.
I do not know this woman so I can't vouch for what she said.

Actually, it sounds as if the CommieCare is working out as designed.

It could be true. Lots of times you pay the deductible and then a percentage up to a maximum and then they pick up 100%.
That means people are paying far more than the media is reporting. No one has a policy this bad until now.

Many hospitals are asking for the deductible to be paid up front. They’re pretty well experienced with people running out on their bills.

Share your weatlh and now share your health, hey stop reading this and get back to work you need to pay more tax dollars to the government so that the people here illegally can get medical care and foodstamps. You need to pay to make sure that those illegals kids can get a good education and compete with your kids for the few jobs in the future, so get goin now. You need to work harder and pay higher taxes. Share the wealth so that the lazy stay at home hoodlum can call his baby mamma on his Obamaphone, and tell that ho to sell some foodstamps and pick him up a pack of Kools and a dime bag on her way home from the salon. She got her hair did today using her EBT card. On her way back to her Obamahome she’s gonna trade some of her kids milk and cereal she got from WIC, for a couple of hits on the crack pipe, and don’t worry if she gets sick she already signed up for her Obamacare medicaid plan so her STD treatment is now courtesy of the taxpayers too, isn’t Obama so generous with all our hard earned money....

To: Secret Agent Man
it is not a full 100% after deductible, its 70/30 or 80/20, and all plans have co-pays split like this for procedures and meds.I believe some of the plans are 60/40 after the deductible is met.

To: Jane Long
Nah, you're all too invested in the payoffs (from your lobbyist buddies) to actually try to repeal this abomination.
REPEAL you say?? He and his band of GOP-e leaders JUST FUNDED O-CARE IN THEIR BUDGET AGREEMENT WITH THE CLOWN!!!!!!!!!!
The only stomach they have is for holding show votes in the HOUSE knowing Reid and his Senate will throw the bills in the trash basket.
What good is the GOP?

That’s what I’ve heard from other BCBS PRIVATE policy holders. As far as the 0Care exchange folks, time will tell. I’m with JimRob on that, tho....NO WAY, NO HOW, NO THANKS ;)

Yep. That’s what I’m talking about regarding the crony capitalism/lobbyist payoffs that the GOPe is living large off on. As long as they receive our tax $$ - to fund this debacle - and the lobbyist perks, they could care less about our day to day lives.

I wish you the best of luck - with your docs and preferred hospitals staying in your plan. I don’t personally know anyone who has signed up for 0Care - please keep us posted.
