Roanoke Times, 10-5-10, Pg 1 & 14, BIG front page spread with BIG photo:
Virginia lagging behind other states in retaining doctors.
-
How pathetic! The editors of the Roanoke Times don’t even get the meaning and consequences behind their own major front page story!
It’s the marginal doctor's fees for Medicare, Medicaid, and massive liability insurance costs that are driving your independent doctor out of the front lines of patient care!
-
But wait – ObamaCare is coming – that will fix all our ills! Not so fast: ObamaCare is:
-
* Driving hundreds of thousands of people onto Medicaid with even lower fees for doctors
* Obama is cutting $500 BILLION (that’s one half TRILLION) from the Medicare budget just as millions of baby-boomers are entering the system
* Instead of training and hiring more doctors, he is hiring 16,500 IRS agents to police his system
* The trial lawyers will have ever more medical targets of opportunity to get rich (John Edwards and associates)
* Liability insurance rates will continue to escalate
* The total cost of becoming an MD is several hundred thousand dollars in loans that must be repaid plus the costs to start-up a business.

Is this the healthcare hope and change America was promised?
And when will the Editors of the Roanoke Times wake up and smell the coffee?
