When you can, take a chance to read Dr. John Lewis’s take – the same Dr. Lewis who spoke at Liberty 101 — on the Health Care Take Over bill. By reading his selections, you would have read more of the bill than most legislators have.
I haven’t read the entire bill yet but the parts I have read are mind boggling bad. Bad as in Winston Smith said that it is a tad bit invasive. The bill isn’t so much as fixing health care and insurance but using them as device to help control people.
DOES THE GOVERNMENT set FEES FOR SERVICES? Page 124, Sec. 223:
(d) CONSTRUCTION.—Nothing in this subtitle shall be construed as limiting the Secretary’s authority to correct for payments that are excessive or deficient . . .
(e) CONSTRUCTION.—Nothing in this subtitle shall be construed as affecting the authority of the Secretary to establish payment rates . . .
(f) LIMITATIONS ON REVIEW.—There shall be no administrative or judicial review of a payment rate or methodology established under this section or under section 224. [emphasis mine]
Be sure to read the whole thing. Or if you are a real glutton for punishment, read the complete bill (PDF file), all one thousand pages of it.
Great post! Keep up the excellent work!!
