You're in good hands with Obamacare
Nurse: We have the result of your biopsy Mrs Harris, You have Ductal
Carcinoma in-Situ, DCIS, a pre-cancerous area in your right breast. Mrs Harris: OH, Thank God you caught it in time, my mom and her mom and even my sister died from breast cancer. When can we schedule surgery? Nurse: Well………..Obamacare only allows surgery for invasive lesions and DCIS is not yet invasive so………. Mrs. Harris: What? I have to wait until a mammogram shows it is spreading, that’s outrageous. Nurse: Well, that is the policy. Mrs. Harris: OK, I’ll get a mammogram every 6 months then to be sure to catch it. Nurse: Obamacare only allows for a mammogram every 18 months. Mrs Harris: It could have metastasized and spread all over in 18 months. Nurse: Yes, but then surgery will be covered by Obamacare. Mrs. Harris: But the outcome is so much worse then. Nurse: That’s true but Obamacare does provide 2 weeks of hospice. |
