Wow, a Senator (ret) going to get health care in a foreign country where there's UHC. For a mere hernia. And note who it is, the granny starver himself.

Oh, I believe he's seeking the best care he can find. I don't blame him for that, I blame him for trying to screw our health care. Even if he does nice things, he's no good.

Hopefully not too far off subject but the shit show of American health care has come to light for me again in recent days. The Marketplace sent me that notice a few weeks back (early Dec) that I had been automatically enrolled in Virginia's medicaid and nothing else was required on my part. Then on or about the 2nd or 3rd of this month I get a notice from KP that since I hadn't chosen a plan during the open enrollment, that they simply renewed my previous plan, albeit at over $100 more per month. Still a bargain given the plan but the Medicaid is (cough) free. Being that I had several scheduled appointments and Rx's already lined up.... I just handed KP my KP card when I went in. I'm 100% sure this will ultimately turn into a clusterfuck. More as the story evolves.
My mom is in Albuquerque with all kinds of issues and has been told her Medicare is about to quit paying for hospital bills, rehab, and won't cover home care because she "makes too much money". Ahem, to my knowledge her sole income is her social security check. Of course given that, she doesn't make enough to get into an assisted living facility or pay for in home help. God Damn America amiright?
Finally, my girl at Chili's mentioned she needed to go to the doctor since she's been sick for two months with a bad cough. Turns out she has a shit plan through the Marketplace and pays 270 some bucks a month but won't go in (also KP) because she's got a 5500 deductible and I looked it for her, 2 views of a simple fucking xray would cost her almost 400 bucks on top of the office visit. Now I ask you, is this right? Is this okay? Why are we punishing people who are young and go to work every day and PAYING for insurance to cover nothing?

Because rich fucks still say they aren't comfy enough. Fucking CANADA can provide UHC. We could, but won't, we shouldnall hurry up and die.
I'm pretty sure my health insurance will lapse very shortly, since prednisent dontgiveafuck isn't doing his duty. MAGA.
