Is your doctor keeping you sick? This is part 2 of a series about how the medical system is integrated to keep us sick and poor. What will be your choice for health?
2. Recall that your doctor is trained
to work as part of a bigger
system….
Health Insurance
Companies
Drug
Companies
Government
Malpractice
Lawyers
Your
Doctor
3. These are the parts of that
system
Health insurance
Drug Companies
The Government
Malpractice Lawyers
Your Doctor
4. Let’s take a look at how doctors
work inside that system
5. Your Government’s Medicare Program
1. 85% of people are
taken care of in
doctor’s offices and 85% Office
other clinics
15%
Hospital
2. 15% are taken care
of in expensive ER’s
and hospitals
6. More On Your Government
Medicare wants to cut reimbursements
to doctor’s who give preventive care to
patients in their offices
Doctor’s are going to stop taking care of
people who have Medicare (opt out)
because they will not get paid
Where are people who have Medicare
going to be forced to go for medical
care?
8. Your Government’s
Medicare saga continues….
But…Medicare is also cutting
reimbursements to hospitals
If hospitals won’t get paid to take care of
Medicare patients…..
And outpatient doctors are opting out of
Medicare…..
Where will Medicare patients go to get
preventive health care??
