In the 21st century, the training of osteopathic physicians in the United States is very similar to that of their M.D. counterparts.[3] Osteopathic physicians attend four years of medical school followed by at least three years of residency. They use all conventional methods of diagnosis and treatment. Though still trained in Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine (OMM),[4] the modern derivative of Still’s techniques,[5][6] a minority of osteopathic physicians use it in actual practice
I’ll save you time and a lot of money, CG. Just send me half of your co-pay and I’ll send you your results right now. Your pregnancy test results MAY take a bit longer, though. Can never be too careful about those tests.
Bruised...from constantly smacking together
I'm telling you, this is not a big deal (1%). However, the "covering prexisting conditions" (guaranteed issue) is the killer.
That mandated coverage causes a premium increase of 150-300%.
Imagine the effect on premium of placing people who are dying, into the same insurance market as the healthy young immortals.
You all knew, yet did nothing.
>> Raddatz: So were you misled?
>> Gillibrand: No, we all knew
So now we know it was a conspiracy to mislead 5 million citizens... Interesting.
“I’m not advocating that, nor mental health coverage. They are the coverage mandates that do drive up premiums.”
Yes, they do. Obamacare is stocked with covered “treatments” that are not necessary, not wanted, or both.
remember, we are watching :)
We love getting chiropractors on the stand, as they are so easily impeached, and they invariably discredit and embarrass themselves, and do harm to their “patient’s” case, and usually end up benefitting our client’s case.
If you all knew, then why did you demonize anyone who tried to warn people and divert the impending disaster. Remember? A few weeks ago? Hostage takers? Domestic terrorists? Racists? Traitors? And my personal favorite: Anarchists?
LOL.
Yes, they do.
I was talking about chiropractic and mental health. Didn't I just say they did?
The medical procedure mandates amount to about 1%.
Why are you worried about 1% when there's the potential elsewhere for 300%?
Hell, I was agreeing with you that there are unwanted and unnecessary coverages that drive up the premiums. Sheesh.
These rats need to start pleading the 5th Amendment!
And I’m telling you they don’t.
There are a lot of chiropractors would will milk a minor injury for years. There are a very few who, like mine, specialize in short courses of treatment.
Last I heard mine was the ONLY chiropractor approved for City of San Jose insurance.
Caveat emptor.
Did Gillibrand take campaign donations from solicitations that said she'd protect her constitutuents insurance plans?
If she took money claiming it, while all the time knowing that it was a lie, then indeed it was a conspiracy to mislead, and defraud people of their money.
