ObamaCare ALREADY Forcing Doctors To Close Practices
Since the election took repeal off the table ... After 25 years of practicing medicine, Dr. Tamzin Rosenwasser
packed in her dermatology practice in 2011, barely a year after the
passage of President Obama’s health care initiative. The timing wasn’t
coincidental. “I have interrupted practicing medicine because of Obamacare,” said ... MOREGet Ready For An ObamaCare Tax Onslaught
by Grace-Marie Turner. The third wave of ObamaCare taxes began on January 1, the latest
blitz before the tsunami of changes from the health overhaul law hit in
2014. These new and higher taxes are being levied to partially pay
for ObamaCare’s massive new subsidies for private health insurance and
expansion of Medicaid. The most controversial of ... MOREMark Steyn: The Doctor Won't See You Now
American health care is in a bureaucratic death grip. A few years ago, my small local hospital asked a Senate staffer if she could assist them in obtaining federal money for a new building. So she did, expediting the process by which that particular corner of northern New Hampshire was deemed to be “under-served” and thus eligible for the fed gravy. ... MOREDavid Davenport: The ObamaCare Battle Is Far From Over
The House could make implementation difficult. With the defeat of Mitt Romney, Obamacare dodged a presidential repeal bullet, but serious threats to the sweeping reform of healthcare remain. In fact, given that the most important piece of domestic legislation in nearly fifty years was enacted on a party-line vote, it should not be surprising that as ... MOREDr. Milton R. Wolf: ObamaCare Taxes Risk 800,000 Jobs
More government means more unemployment. America’s race toward the so-called “fiscal cliff” of automatic, massive tax increases is only part of the problem. This Thelma has her Louise — the Obamacare taxes — and hand-in-hand, these two terrors are racing toward Jan. 1. The only thing worse than President Obama’s broken Obamacare ... MOREPaul Hsieh: 5 Ways To Protect Yourself From ObamaCare
How the individual can minimize the damage. Now that President Obama has won re-election, repeal of the ObamaCare
health law is no longer realistic. Although some state governors
continue to resist and there are some still-pending legal challenges,
prudent Americans should prepare for the law being eventually
implemented in full. ObamaCare will ... MOREDerek Robertson: Negative Versus Positive Rights
Just what is a "human right"? The phrase “healthcare is a human right” displays a profound ignorance of basic terminology, as well as a contradictory, self-imploding notion of what qualifies as a “right.” A poll once indicated that many Americans believe healthcare to indeed qualify as a right, probably mistaking themselves to possess compassion ...

SF Gate: Most Expired Drugs Work Fine
Most expired drugs remain potent for decades. Thinking about going through your medicine cabinet and throwing out all your expired prescriptions? That might not be necessary, according to a UCSF-led study. Researchers analyzed eight prescription drugs with 15 active ingredients that expired between 28 and 40 years ago and found ... MOREShikha Dalmia: ObamaCare's Rationing By Another Name
About the Independent Payment Advisory Board. The stunning post-debate reversal in Mitt Romney’s fortunes may
not last through the elections. But win or lose, he’ll do the
country a big favor if he continues to expose the Independent
Payment Advisory Board—the beloved center-piece of Obamacare—for
what it is: An effort to give an ... MOREVIDEO: Why U.S. Health Care Costs More Than Canada's
It is why a Mercedes Benz is more expensive than a Toyota corolla.
Supreme Court Opens Door To ObamaCare Challenge
Could America get a reprieve? Tucked inside the Supreme Court's lengthy list of orders on Monday was an indication that the fight over President Obama's health care law soon could be back before the high court. Since the court's June decision upholding the law's individual mandate to buy insurance, one of the first Obamacare plaintiffs ... MOREAvik Roy: AARP Made $2.8 Billion Selling Out Seniors
Why the AARP supported MediCare cuts. As you know if you’ve been reading this blog, Obamacare cuts $716 billion from Medicare in order to pay for its expansion of coverage to low-income Americans. It’s one of the reasons why seniors are more opposed to the new health law than any other age group. So why is it that the group that purports to ... MORESEATTLE TIMES: Get Real About Legalizing Marijuana
Seattle residents disagree with marijuana prohibition. Revelers at Seattle's Hempfest celebration of marijuana were offered a debate by supporters and opponents of Initiative 502. We hope they were sober enough to think through it. For the first time, it is possible to envision an end to marijuana prohibition. That is a huge change -- ... MOREThe Inevitable Future Of Electronic Medical Records
by Cynthia J. Koelker, MD. For the past year now I’ve been using an Electronic Health Record (EHR) and believe the writing is on the wall. These computerized medical records are not about improving health care; they are about control of both the physician and patient. Beginning in 2013, doctors who don’t prescribe electronically will be penalized financially. ... MORETait Trussell: Doctor's Fear For Medicine's Future
Incentives of ObamaCare are driving doctors away. In a new national poll, doctors say they must now decide if they can continue practicing medicine in their patients’ best interest or bow to bureaucratically-set restrictions that take precedence over patient necessities. Another stark choice some doctors ponder is: Can I ... MORE
