A Look at What is Really in the Health Care Bill (HR3200): CHILLING!

Take a look at what actually is in the Health Care bill. Obama makes disingenuous comments like “You’ll still keep your doctor” or “You’ll keep your existing health care.” He is either lying to us or he has no idea what is in it. Take a peek at the full report, or look at some of the highlights here:

Pg 16-17 of the HC Bill states as soon as anything changes in your HC coverage -- such as a change in co-pays or deductibles, which many insurers change every year --you'll have to move into a qualified plan instead.

Pg 22 of the HC Bill mandates the Government will audit books of all employers that self insure. Can you imagine what that will do to small businesses? Every one will abandon “self insurance” and go on Government insurance. So when Obama says that there will still be private health care, it’s simply a lie: this mandate will force employers to abandon their private plans

Pg 30 Sec 123 of HC bill – a Government committee (good luck with that!) will decide what treatments/benefits a person may receive.

Pg 29 lines 4-16 in the HC bill – YOUR HEALTHCARE WILL BE RATIONED! (We all knew this, because health care is rationed in Canada and Britain, but Obama kept saying it would not be).

Pg 42 of HC Bill – The Health Choices Commissioner will choose your HC Benefits for you. You will have no choice!

PG 50 Section 152 in HC bill – HC will be provided to ALL non US citizens, illegal or otherwise.

Pg 58 HC Bill – Government will have real-time access to individual’s finances and a National ID Healthcard will be issued!

Pg 59 HC Bill lines 21-24 Government will have direct access to your bank accts for election funds transfer.

PG 65 Sec 164 is a payoff subsidized plan for retirees and their families in Unions & community organizations (read: ACORN).

Pg 72 Lines 8-14 Government will create an HC Exchange to bring private HC plans under Government control.

PG 84 Sec 203 HC bill – Government mandates ALL benefit packages for private HC plans in the Exchange.

PG 85 Line 7 HC Bill – Specifics of Benefit Levels for Plans = The Government will ration your Healthcare!

PG 91 Lines 4-7 HC Bill – Government mandates linguistic appropriate services. Example – Translation for illegal aliens paid by the government.


Pg 95 HC Bill Lines 8-18 The Government will use groups, i.e. ACORN & Americorps, to sign up individuals for Government HC plan.

PG 85 Line 7 HC Bill – Specifics of Benefit Levels for Plans. AARP members – your Health care WILL be rationed.

-PG 102 Lines 12-18 HC Bill – Medicaid Eligible Individuals will be automatically enrolled in Medicaid. No choice.

pg 124 lines 24-25 HC No company can sue Government on price fixing. No “judicial review” against Government Monopoly.

pg 127 Lines 1-16 HC Bill – Doctors/ AMA – The Government will tell YOU what you can earn.

Pg 145 Line 15-17 An Employer MUST auto enroll employees into public option plan. NO CHOICE.

Pg 126 Lines 22-25 Employers MUST pay for HC for part time employees AND their families.

Pg 149 Lines 16-24 ANY Employer with payroll $400k & above who does not provide public option pays 8% tax on all payroll.

pg 150 Lines 9-13 Businesses with payroll between $251k & $400k who don’t provide public option pay 2-6% tax on all payroll.

Pg 167 Lines 18-23 ANY individual who doesn’t have acceptable HC according to Government will be taxed 2.5% of income.

Pg 170 Lines 1-3 HC Bill Any NONRESIDENT Alien is exempt from individual taxes. (Americans will pay.)

Pg 195 HC Bill -officers & employees of HC Admin (the GOVERNMENT) will have access to ALL Americans’ finances and personal records.

PG 203 Line 14-15 HC – “The tax imposed under this section shall not be treated as tax” Yes, it says that.

Pg 239 Line 14-24 HC Bill Government will reduce physician services for Medicaid. Seniors, low income, poor affected.

Pg 241 Line 6-8 HC Bill – Doctors – doesn’t matter what specialty – will all be paid the same.

PG 253 Line 10-18 Government sets value of Doctor’s time, professional judgment, etc. Literally, value of humans.

PG 265 Sec 1131 Government mandates & controls productivity for private HC industries.

PG 268 Sec 1141 Federal Government regulates rental & purchase of power driven wheelchairs.

PG 272 SEC. 1145. TREATMENT OF CERTAIN CANCER HOSPITALS – Cancer patients – welcome to rationing!

Page 280 Sec 1151 The Government will penalize hospitals for what Government deems preventable readmissions.

Pg 298 Lines 9-11 Doctors who treat a patient during initial admission that results in a readmission – Government will penalize you.

Pg 317 L 13-20 OMG!! PROHIBITION on ownership/investment. Government tells Doctors what/how much they can own.

Pg 317-318 lines 21-25,1-3 PROHIBITION on expansion – Government will mandate hospitals cannot expand.

pg 321 2-13 Hospitals have opportunity to apply for exception BUT community input required. Can u say ACORN?!

Pg335 L 16-25 Pg 336-339 – Government mandates establishment of outcome-based measures which of course forces health care rationing.

Pg 341 Lines 3-9 Government has authority to disqualify Medicare Adv Plans, HMOs, etc., forcing people into Government plan.

Pg 354 Sec 1177 – Government will RESTRICT enrollment of Special needs people!

Pg 379 Sec 1191 Government creates more bureaucracy – Telehealth Advisory Committee. HC by phone.

One troubling provision of the House bill compels seniors to submit to a counseling session every five years (and more often if they become sick or go into a nursing home) about alternatives for end-of-life care(House bill, p. 425-430). The sessions cover highly sensitive matters such as whether to receive antibiotics and "the use of artificially administered nutrition and hydration."

PG 425 Lines 4-12 Government mandates Advance Care Planning Consultations. Think Senior Citizens end of life prodding.

Pg 425 Lines 17-19 Government will instruct & consult regarding living wills, durable powers of attorney. Mandatory!

PG 425 Lines 22-25, 426 Lines 1-3 Government provides approved list of end of life resources, guiding you in how to die.

PG 427 Lines 15-24 Government mandates program for orders for end of life. The Government has a say in how your life ends.

Pg 429 Lines 1-9 An “advanced care planning consultant” will be used frequently as patients’ health deteriorates.

PG 429 Lines 10-12 “advanced care consultation” (dubbed “Duty to Die”) Lecture may include an ORDER for end of life plans. AN ORDER from the Government to end a life!

Pg 429 Lines 13-25 – The Government will specify which Doctors can write an end of life order.

PG 430 Lines 11-15 The Government will decide what level of treatment you will have at end of life.

This mandate invites abuse, and seniors could easily be pushed to refuse care. Do we really want government involved in such deeply personal issues?

And shockingly, only a portion of the money accumulated from slashing senior benefits and raising taxes goes to pay for covering the uninsured. The Senate bill allocates huge sums to "community transformation grants," home visits for expectant families, services for migrant workers -- and the creation of dozens of new government councils, programs and advisory boards slipped into the last 500 pages.

Pg 469 – Community Based Home Medical Services/Non profit orgs. (ACORN Medical Services here?)

Page 472 Lines 14-17 PAYMENT TO COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATION. 1 monthly payment to a community-based organization. (Like ACORN?)

PG 489 Sec 1308 The Government will cover Marriage & Family therapy. Which means they will insert Government into our marriages.

Pg 494-498 Government will cover Mental Health Services including defining, creating, rationing those services. You’d better speak up now before you are on the “advanced care consultation” list.

Pg 881 – 882 Preferential treatment will be given to minorities and other challenged groups over test scores and grades for entrance to medical school. (I don’t know about you, but I don’t care what color my doctor or nurse is, but I want “the best” surgeon regardless of race or color doing my surgery!!).

***All doctors will be forced to do abortions, no matter what their convictions.***

And the list goes on…  full report (HR-3200) Bill

  • The government will have a computer in every medical facility and doctor’s office.
  • Everyone’s medical records will be in a central database controlled by the government… probably facilitated by G.E… Can anybody say, “Big Brother” and want to speculate what this database will eventually be used for?

No rationing

***No public option - (Government should regulate, but not run or pay for care) – immediate or as a later byproduct***

Absolutely NO single-payer program!!!!!!

No forced mandate for doctors to perform abortions

No eugenic programs or reduction in elder care and services… including ‘Duty to Die’ Lectures

No electronic central medical database -– the possible negative uses are too dangerous

Yes coverage for legal aliens, No to coverage to illegal aliens

No affirmative action in the operating room!  Medical students need to be accepted and train in accordance with ability, not affirmative action quotas.

Yes to alternative and holistic options

No to anymore votes on any bills that have not been read

What we need is:

  • tort reform (reduction of frivolous medical lawsuits)

  • focus on prevention

  • regulation of insurance fraud and insurance fees

  • no more exclusion of coverage for pre-existing conditions

  • Overhaul of waste and fraud in Medicare, Medicaid and Veteran Coverage – programs the government already runs inefficiently

  • Reduction of test duplication

  • Set up Consortiums for small businesses to give them choices and buying power for insurance.

  • Allow Health Insurance Companies to sell insurance across state lines to cut costs

  • Initiate the special cost structure concessions that have been acquired by the Obama Administration for drugs and medical supplies.

  • Perhaps the truly indigent could be covered by a Medicare subsidiary?

According to the CBO, the Congressional Budget Office, and any experts that have actually read HR3200 and the other 4-bills being considered in the House and Senate the consensus is that none of these bills will improve care, cover everyone, or lower costs. They will worsen care, leave people without coverage, drastically increase costs, begin rationing of care that will hit seniors, the chronically ill and special needs patients first and the hardest.

(Let us also not forget that part of the reason that both U.S. Social Security and Medicare are in the dire conditions that they are now in is because if government mismanagement. Government has borrowed against the money in both coffers for years. And now they want us to put them in charge if all U.S. Healthcare. Our answer must be an unequivocal “no”. Yes to government regulation and over-sight but “no” to government run or paid for medical care of any kind. beyond the programs they already run inefficiently.)

We need to kill all 5-bills; keep the basic system we have; initiate the reforms above to cuts costs and work on covering the people who truly don’t have and can’t afford coverage.  If you take out illegal aliens and people who qualify for programs that already exist, the number of uninsured is half of what the Dems and the Obama Administration is pushing.  This could be done for between 28 – 49 Billion Dollars, depending on the coverage, vs. between 1 and 1.6 Trillion that the governments plan will cost… and  we will still be the best health coverage in the world!

No matter what they tell you, if you read this plan/bill, you realize that it will ultimately evolve into a single-payer government-run healthcare system, with healthcare personal shortages, revenue shortages, long waits for care and rationing, unnecessary suffering and even death from lack of care, refusal of services for the elderly, while many still won’t be covered and the cost for this inefficient service will be astronomical.

  • The U.S. Healthcare System is the best in the World
  • The life expectancy in the U.S. and survival rates of cancer, heart disease, etc is the best in the world, and now we are talking eugenics for Seniors!?!
  • 91% of Americans have healthcare and 85% of Americans are happy with their coverage.
  • There is not example of socialized medicine or national government healthcare that works well.
  • Canadians, Brits and people with money from all over the world come here for medical services.
  • Government controlled healthcare in both Hawaii and Massachusetts were and are failures.
  • When some some at a press conference essentially asks the  President  of the United States if they would kill their mother instead of giving her a pacemaker under the new system and the president tap dances, there is problem.
  • The President ‘admitted’ that he would not accept the limitations of this program for his family.
  • Congress will not be covered under the new healthcare program, but you and your family will have no choice.
  • Virtually none of the Congressman, Senators, nor the President have read this bill.
  • The only people who have read this bill are lobbyists, a few experts, a few diligent citizens and the Talk Radio Hosts!!!

Senator Jon Kyl of Arizona and Betsy McCaughey, for Lt Gov of New York and Patient Advocate, suggest that Americans stand up!! Call, write, email and fax your Congressperson, Senator, and Nancy Pelosi… and as many other Senators and Congressman that you can and pass on this information. And don’t let off the pressure!!!

Betsey McCaughey suggests that AARP members stop paying their dues and pressure AARP to stand up for them!  Attend Tea Parties, join grassroots movements and get this information out to as many people as you can!

If you're diagnosed with cancer, you have a better chance of surviving it in the United States than anywhere else, according to the Concord Five Continent Study. And the World Health Organization ranked the United States No. 1 out of 191 countries for being responsive to patients' needs, including providing timely treatments and a choice of doctors.  This will all change if any of the present Congressional or Senate Bills become law!

This could be America’s biggest fight ever!!
