Right on! Free Market System!
Bill Maher needs to tell Obama to tell SOCIALISM TO “SUCK IT!”
India’s got a very good top-tier system. They have a lower system, too.
If it fails, why is it that every other developed country has socialized medcine, and they have better medical outcomes than we do, and they have no one going broke or bankrupt ruining them and their family’s lives?
Why do you think simply saying socialism is an argument? Why is it OK to lie about and ignore facts because you say socialism? Why is it OK to steal our insurance premiums to finance lies in favor of stealing more of our money and denying more care?
Why is that OK?
Okay if you won't have any clinical skills or any managerial/administration skills, just what will you do? You'll have a lot of knowledge but nothing to do with it.
Socialism sucks. How many ways does it have to be proved? The biggest mistake in America can be pointed at one man, A community organizer…..
They have a 100 percent covered plan for them and their families for life (assuming they serve at least 6 years), along with an excellent pension plan for life.
They will care about the crisis if it is something the voters want! After all, if they are not acting in the interest of the voters, they will lose their seat and their health care plan.
Unfortunately, there is so much disagreement between the "left" and the "right" that it is difficult for congress to do anything. In addition, many people (even those who truly need health care reforms) vote based on moral values, leaving health care to be ignored.
Why is it that we get slickly produced videos that lie and mislead about the problems like this one, that skirt the truth, and ignore the real options, arguing in favor of doing nothing … so that the 1/2 billion that insurance companies are spending to keep their fangs in our veins sucking our money … 1/2 a billion dollars to protect their profits from our insurance premiums, half-a-billion dollars to finanace these kind of lies. This is just a tax that goes to people who do nothing.
Depending on where you live, it may be very similar. Health care management and administration deals much with the same tasks such as budgeting, marketing, meeting with stake holders, dealing with several of hospitals in your given area, organizing and managing the staff that are through various departments. They also are in charge of orchestrating different rules and regulations in process of discipline, hiring and firing etc. through various hospital regions.
I will also provide you a couple of links that may explain things a little clearer to you regarding this.

From what I could see, I believe that you would need a little bit higher than a diploma. It would be either a bachelors or a masters.
In theory, health care manager try to provide the best coverage for the lowest cost. In practice, it seem that they tend to have some initial success in reducing some unnecessary cost, but occassionally their focus in reducing or avoiding costs results in major malpatience law suits.
Medicare is not in shambles… it has kept my grandparents alive and well for years! Social security….when congress has robbed Social security, which has been running a surplus (but instead of congress keeping that money in the account) they’ve raided it and NEVER EVER PAID it back… THAT IS WHY Social security is in trouble! Kids raided the cookie jar then turned around and said….hey there’s no cookies ?? and we are in real trouble…. BTW US folks are flying to India for surgery….
health insurance
Obama rules and will take care of us.
Whoever is narrating the video sounds like a douchebag.
Because all the people who use it say “it’s free”!! That’s precisely the problem. Once you start, it’s almost impossible to stop. Look closely and you’ll find that the governments of these countries regret the decision and recommend against doing it now.
You need to talk with a local agent that works with all of the major companies in your area. Insurance companies and the plans they offer will vary from state to state and the premium with any one plan can vary by zip code.
At 22 if you are in good health you should be able to find a catastrophic plan for less than $100 in most states and a comprehensive plan shouldn't be much more than $100.
The agent will be able to explain what you need to know – there is not enough space here to tell you everything. You'll need to know about the deductible, the co-insurance, the co-pays and what is covered with the co-pay, what procedures are and are not subject to the deductible, what is excluded from the plans, which doctors accept the plans, the different types of plans and how they operate, the prescription coverage if any, and much more. There is no extra charge using an agent.
Canada's healthcare isn't perfect. Neither is the US. From what I've heard from people who've moved from the US to Canada, quality of care and wait times are far better here in the US. Most people would rather pay for a higher standard of care and shorter wait times than move to a lower standard of care and far longer wait times for free. The fact that Canada is losing many of it's better doctors and nurses to the US should tell you something about the situation.
I wouldn't want a socialized healthcare system period. What I would like to see is a reform in the US healthcare system, especially in terms of US insurance companies. In the words of Obama "why take a hatchet to something that only requires a scalpel"?
It’s time to finally have a free-market system!
Our present system is not based on a free market system and Obama’s program is pure socialism and we all know that ALWAYS fails.
OMG…NO!!!!!!!!!
Whats the difference between this case and millions of cases in America where the average person cant afford to pay for their medical care? The only difference in America is you may be able to get a procedure done but then you have to worry about paying off the cost of that procedure for the rest of your life. Or wiping out your savings. This man had the MONEY to pay for it in America. If he wouldntve had the money he would have died just like millions of Americans that die becuz they dont
It doesn't fail, almost every first world country has it setup as a system.
Unless of course you view treatment of the poorer people a failure.
The benefit to not treating a lot of people, is faster care for the wealthy.
If you don't want to have universal health care, the government can step in and price fix medical procedures like they do in japan. It works okay for them. They can afford adequate medical treatment because the government forces it to be affordable, and the same prices in rural as in urban areas.
The real problem with our system, coming from someone who has an entire family in medicine (Doctors, surgeons, nurses)…is the insurance companies. They buffer every side. The doctors, the hospital, the patients, everyone has to get insurance, and they are the ones forcing prices higher and higher.
Free health care isn’t free. Someone has to pay for it. The Government is bankrupt now. Social Security, Medicaid, and Medicare are in shambles. We can’t afford the programs we have now. The argument that this will SAVE money is ridiculous. This will result in poor, rationed care for Americans. In short, The Obama Single Payer Plan will KILL you.
It simply amazes me how people continually believe any amount of bureaucracy that come’s out of Obama’s mouth. If you analyze the majority of his campaign, it’s literally based on fear. Remember the saying “The only thing we have to fear, is fear itself.” Obama is going to use fear to shove every agenda down our throat, and people who have lost the ability to think for theirselves, in the end will have a hard time swallowing it. Single Pay systems fail the patient more often than not….
universal health care is the worst idea EVER. think about it socialized median will give americans poor quality health care u will have to be on a watinging list for operations and treatments(think of ppl with cancer they have to wait) one dr will handle everthing no specialist. dr well loss money they get paid less. many would choce a diff career path. not to mention the lost of job there be lost
Actually we do fare badly against other first world countries. The WHO has collected detailed information on this very subject. e.g. operation results, waiting times, etc. The US needs to stop thinking we are number one at everything; thisn blind patriotic faith is obscuring us from the reality that our healthcare system needs to make serious improvements if we are to catch up to the European system of standards. As somebody who has travelled extensively I’m almost embarrassed about it.
have the money. Just bcuz Canada seems to have a flawed system(based off of this 1 case) doesnt mean that Americas system would operate in the same matter.
are u kidding you think this just one case these are every day cases some don’t even live to talk about it because they died waitng.
universal health care is a bad idea.
we need somting else
If single-payer or socialized medicine is SOOOO bad, why is it that according to the World Health Organization, the health of the French (socialized system) is #1 in the world and the USA is #37? Many of the socialized systems in the world come in higher than the US, yet we SPEND hundreds of times more money than the other countries which are doing better than us! THAT sounds like a bad idea to me! Not to mention that the current US medical system is the #1 killer of Americans…
In any plan made by Clinton the only financial incentives are to put money in her personal bank account.
I wish to point out that all this patient had to do was drive to Montreal and have an MRI for $650. My wife had a non-cancerous tumor and the private clinic in Montreal immediately, after taking the MRI, sent the MRI to the Montreal Neurological Institute. She was immediately attended to and her operation was within a matter of a few weeks. There was no waiting time.
They do NOT have better outcomes! Where are you hearing that? Why do people with money to do so come here for med care? Now we do have some that leave the USA for alternative treatments that have not been approved here, but out healthcare in the USA is 2nd to none (except in costs), but how much is your life worth?
I am currently researching grants to non-profit organizations in order to find funding for parent support groups for parents of children with disabilities, and would be glad to forward m Excell Spreadsheet on
Grants to those providing their e-mail address.
I know that insurance companies like Blue Cross and Aetna have set-up foundations to provide grants to non-profits engaged in educating young people in healthcare matters.

Not for everyone, but for Medicare 77% costs occurred in the last year of life, 52% of them in the last 2 mo, and 40% in the last month, When you are old and become seriously ill, you are more likely to die than the seriously ill young.
Two choices…bankrupt yourself in the US for healthcare or die waiting for it in Canada…there has got to be some kind of midle road somewhere that makes healthcare both affordable AND accessable.I just havent heard anyone come up with that solution yet.
If you have a really good health food store with knowledgeable people I would ask who they might know or suggest. Also the Internet site www. alternative medicine for Maine would hopefully give some info. Good Luck
Amazing. Nursing is like the best profession out there. There are so many sub-specialties in all professional areas.
There are about 100 different nursing specialties. See below for the list. I know that doesn't completely answer you question, but the list can give you some ideas. Research, for instance, or Business Administration, There the CSI angle, but the TV show seems to make it more glamorous than it probably really is. Then there are legal nurse consultants.
You can find a list of the highest paying nursing specialties here on the right hand column: http://www.jobs-in-registered-nursing.com/nursing-specialities/index.php
Another approach is to see what all the nursing schools offer.
You can find a list of all nursing schools here: http://www.my-nursing-career.com/nursing-degrees/index.html.
Since you already have your degree, the online option is a good one. You'd be amazed at what is available for nurses online. Check out the nursing degree search here: http://www.my-nursing-career.com/index.php

I agree with a lot of what Nemisis said, but I think I can simplify it even further.
Insurance is gambling. How do we keep Casino's from getting more and more corrupt, like the insurance industry is?
Caps on profits. If an insurance company had to pay out 90 cents of every dollar that it takes in, it would have to lower premiums. Pass transparent billing, enforce contract law and anti-trust laws. That is very important too, but if insurance companies were obligated to return a percentage of what they take in, not a percentage of net, but a percentage of each and every dollar they touch, health care costs would come down to a realistic level.
One law, enforce the others. Done!
What a steaming load of propaganda. Where is the Ontario government’s side in this? There’s more to the story than what this guy is presenting but we don’t hear it. Furthermore, he’s not even Canadian. He’s speaking of a topic that he doesn’t know about fully other than some hearsay or possibly by reading pamphlets or something. Believe what you want but don’t just take this dude’s word for it.
They don't and this is why i think mccains strategy to win is flawless.He's running so much negative stuff on obama until obama has to spend most of his time defending himself thus meaning mccain has yet to talk about his plans for the economy,healthcare or any of that stuff.And to think people have the nerve to say whats obama's plan.Whats Mccains except talking about war?
I work in health care, as it is..it sucks.
have also been in a situation where I had to watch a love one die because we had no health insurance..I long for socialized medicine, it would have to be better then the current money hungry system
This is out of date wate times are gone for surgery in ontario. Overall the healthcare system here is better than in the us.Also this guy doesn’t represent the majority of canadians 85% of canadians are sattisfied or somewhat satisfied with our system. Also in canada you don’t go broke or die because you don’t have the money for an operation. In the us every year 100,000 people die of treatable diseases.
I worked in the Emergency Room for a long time. After awhile you learn that death is as much a part of life as life itself. Healthcare workers have free counseling at their disposal to help deal with those situations. Death is a part of living; I learned that one morning two years ago when I suffered a massive heart attack that should have killed me, I learned that three weeks ago when my friend died. Death is never easy to deal with; but when you're in the healtcare field you learn to keep your distance; you have to or it would kill you. I've seen children come in from drownings and baby's who were murdered at the hands of the very people who was suppose to protect them. Those, my friend, are the hardest deaths to deal with.
Death is not something we accept but IT IS something we learn to live with.
we just hired two people in the compliance department at the hospital where I work. Neither had experience in compliance but lots of experience in healthcare. Keep watching for job opportunities, read as much as you can about compliance – the regulations seem to change daily!
~~This is a mute point because Nationalized insurance is not in the works. All the government is proposing is an alternative for people who can't get employer based insurance to be able to buy directly from the same insurance that senators and congressmen get. Otherwise, business as usual for private insurance companies.~~
Here's something to think about: according to the census bureau, of the 47 million or so that are uninsured almost 10 million are illegal immigrants, 8 million make over 75,000 a year, another 8 million make over 50,000 a year, and 14 million qualify for medic-aid or medicare but do not apply. Hmmm. makes you think that maybe our system isn't so bad after all. So Obama needs to quit with his fear mongering and quit lying to us. There are a lot of unemployed, but 47 million is very misleading. Give us a real number!
Also the idea is that by giving health care to everyone, businesses don't have to pay for it, and then they can give more jobs, increase profit, and help the economy. Which sounds great, if you're stupid. Since Universal health care is insanely expensive, guess who pays for it? raised taxes on business and on the rich, (and apparently companies that aren't green). So it's basically a beat-around the the bush way to distribute wealth. And ask yourself this? Is it a good idea to take from from the rich? Take money from a poor man, and he becomes poorer, take money from a rich man, and he goes to work and fires his workers. So which is worse? MAYBE GOVERNMENT JUST SHOULDN'T TAKE PEOPLES MONEY!
