Yes. Mark clarified he is not expanding govt. in order to accomodate the poor in his healthcare deals with the hospitals.
The “poor” and everyone else for that matter needs to stop seeing the doctor for every last sniffle. They also need to stop with faking illness to get the doctor’s note for a get out of work pass for three days and other stupid crap that clogs up the system and wastes health care dollars. I see this stuff every single day in practice as an NP.
Americans who really need care are being told their doc no longer accepts Medicare .... Seeing more and more of people with insurance, but no doctor. I believe a tsunami is right around the corner and people are going to start really falling through the cracks if something isn’t done even in the next 2-3 years.
