REMEMBER WHEN your Internal Med or Family Med doc would admit you to a hospital and do AM & PM rounds, called in specialists, and COORDINATED your care AND made sure you were well taken care off? When YOU came first?
Remember when YOU had the same doctor for 20+ years, who knew your complete history upside down and knew YOU, and your family personally?
Remember when docs were allowed to w/o your medical bills because they knew your situation and could have compassion? Or set you up to.pay a dollar a month. Remember when you could wipeout a patients bill as a "hard luck" or "charity" write-off??
Remember when County hospitals & Catholic hospitals gave 100% free service without the need for medicaid. They had clinics where every doc would volunteer clinic hours. Where PEOPLE cared for PEOPLE. It didn't matter if you were completely broke.....you STILL got the best docs and the best, compassionate care.
I REMEMBER those days well. When your doctor could practice GOOD medicine based on an OATH.....not BS outcome voodoo medicine based on cost per capita instead of proper care.
No sir, I assure you medicine STARTED its decline with HMOs & PPOs. But the horrific changes began with the Affordable Care Act. THANK GOD I am in this industry and therefore know HOW to get the care I need. For the average person, they are getting the WORST healthcare known in modern day American history.
I can personally fix healthcare in less than 6 months AND EVERYONE would receive the BEST medicine possible.....AND the insurance industry would hit better profits.....and it would save the federal government billions. I have the FULL PLAN. The simplicity is mind blowing.
The worst part is getting a POLITICIAN to READ it or even listen to a presentation.
THIS is why I DESPISE political parties.....left or right....they BOTH have an agenda.....and neither care about THE PEOPLE.
One thing President Trump has 100% right....."Washington" IS a Swamp......and that Swamp needs to be drained. Wish someone COULD do it without POLITICAL GAMES, INVESTIGATIONS, AND STALL TACTICS.
Until then.......I and ALL healthcare professionals will either FIGHT the system, sellout to the system, or quit! Thus far, many have quit or sold out. FEW are willing to fight the system for BEST PATIENT CARE.
Stay safe & healthy my friend.
