The government bureacrats just LOVE to make things complicated don't they? This prescription deal has been a problem.
On the other hand - Medicare plus private insurance and 100% coverage can be like a smoking gun because then you get over doctored and over prescribed. We are an over-medicated society in our opinion.
We recently cut prescrption meds from 17 pills down to 5 and what a difference in overall improvement of health and psyche. Best thing we ever did was find a D.O. naturist.
EVERYBODY talks about the lack of medical and prescription coverage and proper medical care.. We should be grateful we have such "great" coverage right? Not really.
When you get incarcerated in the hospital like the poor retired veteran in TheAngryPatient.com - you can hardly get checked out because the patient's too adequate med insurance foots the hospital bottom line. Uninsureds surely aren't going to foot that huge bill. We never would've believed it till we lived it.
This is not a popular position today but......sometimes I think we need to be more like socialized medicine. It works fantastically in certain countries.
we now live in fear of having to check into a hospital because we fear we will never get out before we get doctored to death too.
