The LA Times Changes It's Tune From
"There Is No Doctor Boycott
Of The ACA!"
Of The ACA!"
to
"Wow, In A Completely Unexpected Development, A Lot Of Patients Discovering Their Dr. Isn't In Covered CA's Network Despite Being Told They Were!"
This is the great thing about Progressives lying to people and making false promises in order to get them to do what they want them to do:
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS WAIT. Time cures most illusions. Especially illusions spun by Liberals.
EXPERIENCE will teach people to stop listening to Progressives.
Shot: Another ObamaCare Myth Exposed - The California Doctor 'Boycott'
Chaser: ObamaCare Enrollees Hit Snag At Doctor's Offices
Hey, Michael Hiltzik, meed Chad Terhune. Chad, this is Michael. You guys should get together and compare notes or something.
Of course, Chad Terhune at the LA Times tries to put a benevolent spin on this fiasco by talking about 'outdated provider lists'.
Well excuse me. ObamaCare has been in the works for 3 years. Covered CA. has had 3 years to update it's provider lists and since the ACA 'went live' back in October, they've another 4 months to update their provider list and make it accurate.
There is absolutely no excuse for a person showing up at a doctor's office after having been told a Dr. is on that provider list and then finding out differently at this late stage.
It's not 'faulty information'. Covered CA. has been deliberately lying to it's customers for months about which Dr.'s are in their provider network.
The excuses being made simply do not add up. Expect to see this issue gain traction as thousands more Californians who thought they had access to a doctor discover otherwise.
Of course, it won't take long for the standard PC rejoinder to having been misled to become:
"Oh hey, so the Dr. we told you was in the network isn't really in there. So what? Just go find another one already. Jesus, what's the matter with you??!!"
No admission of having lied to people, just a 'suck it up, buttercup!' and an attempt to move on to the next item on their agenda.
When enough people are pissed off at what's been done to them, expect to watch the Left melt down as the 'progress' they think they've been making gets halted and then rolled right back over them in the next couple of years.
Maybe the happy-talk rejoinder will be, "well, now everyone has access to the same doctors. They're more 'equal'" ... or some other nonsense.
ReplyDeleteAnd speaking of "equal" ... when are the leftist elites going to admit they care about "income inequality" not one whit? Obamacare destroys upward mobility and drives the "inequality" wedge ever wider.
The 400%FPL limit to get a subsidy means people will forego raises, overtime, and other income just so they can stay under the limit. Because making $1.00 over 400% FPL means a family loses its entire premium subsidy. Raise? No thanks, boss; how about cutting my wages instead?
Few will "break out" of the lower or middle class under this nightmare of "care." Forget "job lock." Let the left defend its wage lock to "the folks," as Obama likes to call them.
