George Maxwells’ heart pump is specialized care. Anyone on Medicare better enjoy that care, because things will change when ObamaCare goes into action.

Because if your doctor is in the top 10% of doctors, who send patients on to specialists, than your doctor will face a 5% cut, not just on the patients who are sent to specialists, but a 5% cut will be made on every Medicare patient, they have seen for that year.

That policy doesn’t care if you needed a specialist, but just that you were sent. Each year as physicians strive to avoid being in that 10%, the bar of specialized care will be lowered for our seniors. The claim about death panels was false, but this kind of rationing isn’t false.

So George Maxwell can be thankful he got his pump now, because ten years from now, who knows, it could be bye bye George.
