Shocking cuts in Medicare Payments in Obamacare Seniors beware!

Did you ever hear the old saying “You get what you pay for” Well we all know you got what you voted for but the form that is taking will be sure to prove a shocker to seniors in the coming years.   Just look over this time line from the government of the new taxes and the cuts in Medicare subsidies.  What makes you think that seniors will receive the same care from hospitals, doctors and even Hospice when Obama cuts the medicare payments to these providers by $500 Billion. Yes that’s what I said. Cuts to medicare by $500 billion.

 To put it in perspective Obama is financing this “Improved” health care for Americans on the backs of seniors. Do the math. Out of his mouth he said it would cost us $950 billion but not to worry because it would not increase the deficit because he was raising taxes and cutting medicare benefits by $500 billion.  Now with that in mind look at this time table from the House Ways and Means committee.  http://republicans.waysandmeans.house.gov/UploadedFiles/WM_hcr_timelinel.pdf  

The most shocking are Medicare cuts to Hospice care and Dialysis.  Now I know from real experience the help that hospice provided in the last months of my wife’s life.  I also know they were funded partly from donations and the people were low paid but they were supported by Medicare payments.  Those will be cut.  I guess the comments about Death Panels were true.  To back that up look at the cuts to providers of Dialysis care.  That is the Medicare providers of Dialysis care.  Think about that seniors.  That will mean fewer treatment centers longer waits but then it doesn’t matter if you die sooner Obama will save money that he can redistribute to be fair to all.

Oh by the way… like your Medicare Advantage program?  You can kiss that goodbye.  Yes the Union thugs and Chicago sleaze bag machine that gave birth to Obama took care of that.  Oh did I offend the retired Union members.  Gee I’m sorry but the Union doesn’t care about you any more your done paying dues!

Oh yes and you folks that were responsible and saved money in your HSA accounts there is a treat in there for you also.   You can’t spend that on over the counter medications anymore.  In other words that aspirin you take under doctors orders will no longer be able to be paid for with your own money from your own HSA.  You will have to take taxable money to buy that .  In other words a tax on that medication.

There is so much more in there yo will be sick… Oh but then that’s the idea, get sick and die quick and Obama can save money to give away to his cronies…  Sorry I’m pissed!
