Important Health Care Announcement...

Mayo Clinic (Glendale, AZ) announced today that they will no longer
accept future Medicare patients, etc...

...Jim Thompson

Was listening to the radio today. I think that it was the substitute
for Rush Limbaugh...
They mentioned the Amish communities that put aside a cash reserve
for health care. When someone needs medical care (at a hospital),
they negotiate a cash price rate. This rate is substantially lower
than the normal insurance rate.

What does this say about another layer of middlemen and bureaucrats
that would only further raise the costs of care when government gets
involved?

That it can negotiate for lower costs,

Government does not 'negotiate'. It legislates, mandates, and
dictates.

Must be why it had to be specifically prohibited by law. lol



making your characterization a lie.

Says the serial liar.

Poor floppy is projecting again. lol
