Health insurance co-pays have been around for 80-years. The Affordable Care Act, "Obamacare," has been with us for a fraction of that time. Only an idiot would equate the two.

I have never had "Obamacare," Insurance. A friend called to tell me that they don't charge co-pays. So, I guess we both are dummies.

Ever hear of Medicare and Medicare supplement policies? Guess not.
So we'll just chalk up another ignorant, fact free, emotions based meme from Larry. Thnx 4 the laughs.

I'll stack up my 35-years in Health Care Management against anything you have. Medicare needs to be changed from a primarily bed-based program to a primarily ambulatory care program, to move out of the middle of the last century. The supplement policies are sold by the same people who sell the private insurance most of us have. Their actuaries determine how much our care is likely to cost then they base their policy charges on what their costs are likely to be. Co-pays hold down the aggregate costs of hundreds or thousands of policies individual employers or third parties subsidize. If we outlaw co-pays, which is possible since insurance is a regulated industry, they will have to absorb that cost. As it is now, your insurance doesn't cost a lot, until you get sick. We have the power to be compassionate and change that.

Well Larry, keeping track of the urinal cakes and counting toilet paper rolls on your janitor cart hardly qualifies you for the lofty title of "Health Care Management". I hope they got you a nice cake for your retirement party in the basement of the building, maybe designed with a mop and bucket in frosting.

Having been the Regional Director for Public Affairs for the VA, after being a Health Systems Specialist, Administrative Officer For Surgery, Administrative Officer for Psychiatry, Administrative Utilization Review Coordinator, and a program manager for a large non-profit agency might qualify me.

Qualifies you to stand in front of a firing squad as an unrepentant Communist bureaucrat.
Nothing more.
I still think it's bullshit and you mopped floors and filled towel dispensers.

That explains what is wrong with the Veterans Administration .
0 ups, 5y
The Veterans Administration ceased to exist in 1989. Ask the mid-90-percent of disabled veterans who rate the healthcare they get from the Department of Veterans Affairs as excellent, how they feel about it. Ask the top doctors at over 100-medical schools across the country why they work at the VA. Ask the hundreds of thousands of dedicated nurses and other technical professionals why they tolerate ignorant insults from the likes of you and still show up every day to care for our Veterans. If she was alive, my dear friend and former employee Pam Murphy (Audie's widow) would tell you that she was not the only administrative employee that got a great deal of satisfaction doing whatever it took to get Vets the best. You can say all the shit you want about me, personally, but I have seen the sweat and tears of America's most dedicated health care workers expended for our Vets. They don't deserve your bile. So, knock it off, Punk!

Oooo! 35 years in Health Care Management...Larry will know!

Why is it okay to let illegals into the country during the pandemic who have not been screened for covid, and those who have been diagnosed with it (only because of the symptoms), are kept together with everyone else in extremely crowded areas, and then airlifted all over the country?
Sounds like a SUPER-SPREADER-EVENT to me.

Wait, in those 35 years, you never knew that obiecare didn’t charge co-pays. That’s not a good look for an anonymous poster on the internet
