Doctors supporting a return to patient-centered medicine say CNN’s Obamacare debate this week between Sens. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Bernie Sanders (I-VT) shows the claims by proponents of a government-centered health care system need to be challenged.
Claim #1: 20 million people will lose health care if ACA is repealed.
Sanders said repeal of Obamacare “means that if you are one of 20 million Americans who finally has received health insurance, forget about it, you’re gone. You’re off health insurance.”
“First off, among the purported 20 million who obtained health insurance through the ACA, 16 million are on Medicaid, and if ACA were repealed today, they’d still be on Medicaid,” Dr. Gerard Gianoli, the Louisiana-based Ear and Balance Institute, reacts to Breitbart News.

ReplyDeleteYES THANK YOU!!!!!
Health insurance is not the same as health care! Why can't liberals understand that simple fact?
ReplyDeleteFix what's broken, but don't break what isn't and pretend that it was.
ReplyDeleteGive it back to the private sector where it belongs
ReplyDelete10:07 AM Pretend that it isn't broken? What fantasy world are you living in. Because those of us NOT on Medicaid can NOT afford health care at over 12K a year and no subsidy, which comes to 1/3 of our net pay.
