How's that Obamacare Repeal Working Out For You?

[SuburbanFarmer]

Yep.

See your future, Americans....


Obese patients and smokers banned from routine surgery in 'most severe ever' rationing in the NHS

Obese people will be routinely refused operations across the NHS, health service bosses have warned, after one authority said it would limit procedures on an unprecedented scale.

Hospital leaders in North Yorkshire said that patients with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or above – as well as smokers – will be barred from most surgery for up to a year amid increasingly desperate measures to plug a funding black hole. The restrictions will apply to standard hip and knee operations.

What's your BMI, motherfucker? Papers, please . . . then step right up here on the scales.

Now THAT is enough to piss me off. Not the boutique born-brain-dead case.

Hell yeah. I am set in England. Instead of getting robbed of health care because of the VA, I'd live it up and make fat people go without instead.

A spokesman for NHS England added: "Major surgery poses much higher risks for severely overweight patients who smoke. So local GP-led Clinical Commissioning Groups are entirely right to ensure these patients first get support to lose weight and try and stop smoking before their hip or knee operation. Reducing obesity and cutting smoking not only benefits patients, but saves the NHS and taxpayers millions of pounds.

"This does not and cannot mean blanket bans on particular patients such as smokers getting operations, which would be inconsistent with the NHS constitution.

"Vale of York CCG is currently under "special measures" legal direction, and NHS England is today asking it to review its proposed approach before it takes effect to ensure it is proportionate, clinically reasonable, and consistent with applicable national clinical guidelines."

Hmm, right wing Daily Torygraph scaremongering and twisting story about NHS. Who would have believed that could happen?
No effect on patients with life threatening injuries and only a proposal at this point anyway.
Another angle on this story would be ''years of underspending on health service by Tory government threatens future of NHS''.

They can still go to the emergency room if they have a problem, no one is going to turn them away if they don't have health insurance.

It was that way before Obamacare.

What's your problem? People don't die because they don't have health insurance, they won't die if Obama care is repealed. According to the CBO it's only:

The number of people who are uninsured would increase by 17 million in 2018, compared with the number under current law. That number would increase to 27 million in 2020, after the elimination of the ACA’s expansion of eligibility for Medicaid and the elimination of subsidies for insurance purchased through the marketplaces established by the ACA, and then to 32 million in 2026.

Healthy people don't die without it, that's true. Chronic disease patients, on the other hand... well, Freedom.
