Doctors against Obamacare

[Battle]

A new survey of Doctors has been released. The results are bleak.
If Obamacare is fully implemented, 83 percent will consider leaving the practice of medicine. Sixty-one percent say it's an affront to their ethics. Eighty-five percent say it destroys the doctor-patient relationship. Sixty-five percent say governmental involvement is the cause of the problems in medical care now. Seventy-two percent say the insurance mandate won't result in improved access to medical care. Seventy-four percent say they'll stop accepting Medicare patients, or leave Medicare altogether. Seventy percent say reducing governmental involvement would be the single best fix for healthcare in this country. The negatives of Obamacare went on and on in the results of the survey.



Repeal of Obamacare is imperative for the protection of our medical care in this country. When the people most vital to our healthcare are considering leaving the profession something is terribly broken.
There is other horrible news about Obamacare as well. A new GAO audit of the costs of Obamacare says the IRS alone will spend $881 million in just the first four years to implement its provisions in Obamycare – that's $881 million we don't have. And a recent CBO report put the expected costs of Obamacare itself at twice what we had been previously told to expect.
It's apparent Obamacare won't resolve anything, and is itself a huge problem. We're already projected to fall far short of the MDs needed in future years, and this atrocity will run huge numbers out of the profession. And the costs of it are ridiculously high.



Survey after survey show the American people want this atrocity repealed. Yet Democrats, the people who rammed this unconstitutional mandate down our throats, won't lift a finger to stop it. In fact, they won't even discuss Obamacare – out of fear. And their media minions have removed it from public view lest it ruin Democrats in the fall elections.



But make no mistake, it's still out there, and is still a malignant threat to our healthcare system, and our national finances. Socialized medicine is a horrible idea.
That's been proven over and over. Yet the Democrats say we must knuckle under to it and all its hideous ramifications. We must show them we won't – at the ballot box in November.

Have you ever wondered what life would be like without doctors?

Doctors and surgeons rank among the highest paid professions in the world. While its great they are speaking out I doubt many of them would actually give up that income, or their european cars, homes, golf memberships, and wives, out of principle alone. I suspect in many cases the plan may adversely their current lifestyle, hence the dire warning.

If you think doctors and surgeons under Obamacare are going to maintain the same standard of living as pre-Obamacare private practice, I have a bridge in Brooklyn you may be interested in. Only one previous owner.

Well that proves my point, it's not on principle they protest but on income.

Didnt Obama already sign this, and the SC upheld it? How many doctors have quit so far? Bottom line is few will be ause it's still a higher paying profession than most others, and their degree won't get them much outside the field.

I received a check this week from my Insurance Company ... In 2011, they did not achieve the mandate of the new health care laws of only 10% being spent on administrative & pay etc. and 90% had to be spent on actual health care ... Missing their target the had to refund money to the insured ...

SoCalASABlue ... Let me know when your doctor starts struggling to make ends meet, I'll send him my check ...

What will be the next profession that our benevolent Democrat politicians determine are making too much profit and need to be reigned in under their control?
Scary road to head down.

Making 'too much profit' or 'theft by deception' ? ... Should it matter if a company is privately held or publicly traded ? ... If they are required to spend less on adminitrative and more on health care, one would think that more claims get paid ... Does that mean 'fraudulent' claims or 'justified' claims which may have been previously denied ? One would also think that huge bonus' and exorbitant salaries could be kept in check ... Or not ...

You are correct. Doctors will not give up their lifestyles or at least try not to but what they will do is give up their private practice to migrate towards working for hospitals because they can't afford the overhead of a private practice. How many smart kids are going to pick the medical field if another field of study offers more money and is not controlled by the government? If they're going to do that, they will go in the military. These kid are giving up 8-10 years of their lives. I don't know about you but when I take my family to the doctor, I want the best money can buy. Not the best the government can control.
Obama says under his plan you can still use your doctor but what he didn't tell you is, under his plan your doctor may not be there. It will almost force you to use the emergency room for everything because the hospital is where your doctor will be working and there is no guarantee that you can pick your doctor.

So if this continues, what do you think is going to happen? Do you think they are just going to bite the bullet? If you voted for Obama, he ran on change. Well change is coming and not for the good.
