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.

Frog, my wife's friend just visited for a week, she's from the U.K. I
asked her what she thought of her healthcare system, and she said that
although there are some problems, overall it works very well. They get
alot of U.S. news feeds there, and her take? The conservatives here do
nothing but cherry pick a few things that failed in the system but
never, ever report the good.

They have global heath care. Obama's plan is different and so
convoluted no one understands it. I doubt they will ever find a way to
implement it as written.
