Taken from Over my med body!: "Dr. Thompson, frequently comments on my blog, and left this zinger today: 'I personally see nothing wrong with health savings accounts and allowing patients to be in charge of their health care decision'". <BR/><BR/>Holy CRAP!!! Interesting example- I commented this on his board too: "This past semester, I had about 7 episodes of idiopathic anaphylaxis. I had never had one before, and yes, they still really don’t know why I was having the reactions in the first place. But I now have thousands and thousands of dollars in debt (WITH insurance in place) that I don’t know what to do with. <BR/><BR/>'I personally see nothing wrong with health savings accounts and allowing patients to be in charge of their health care decisions.' What happens to me then? The next time I have a reaction, I’m supposed to decide if I can intubate myself rather than going to the ER? Because I cost too much? No, I think that’s a decision for a doctor to make."<BR/><BR/>This was interesting because that comment came from a DOC!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8086308.post-1149077143601893402006-05-31T05:05:00.000-07:002006-05-31T05:05:00.000-07:00I read the entire article on single payer insuranc...I read the entire article on single payer insurance and it does make sense, that is the sole reason the gubment will never go for it.<BR/><BR/>ZZer0https://www.blogger.com/profile/06734053669721394287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8086308.post-1148948388763164802006-05-29T17:19:00.000-07:002006-05-29T17:19:00.000-07:00I'll check it out, thanks for the link.ZI'll check it out, thanks for the link.<BR/><BR/>ZZer0https://www.blogger.com/profile/06734053669721394287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8086308.post-1148930160865052632006-05-29T12:16:00.000-07:002006-05-29T12:16:00.000-07:00http://www.grahamazon.com/ I'm an ass, forgot to ...http://www.grahamazon.com/ I'm an ass, forgot to post the link.
