health care crisis

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on July 6, 2009 - 4:33pm.

i saw a special last night on TV about Wendell Potter and today had to find a way to give my two cents worth. I have been in health care for twenty five years with a multi-specialty medical group who contracts with commercial and medicare advantage plans. ALL the plans waste money everyday!! Their focus is not for the patient or the doctor it is for how much money they can make by "reviewing the doctor's recomendations" and saying "sorry it is not medically indicated" or sorry your patient does not meet criteria".

I am so happy that there are people like Wendell who are now willing to speak out! We need to fix this problem NOW.

Wendell, please share all your experiences with President Obama and with anyone else who will listen. Your same experiences are still happening everyday at every insurance carrier. I have contacts inside every insurance company that our medical group contracts with who say the same thing you are saying. BUT they can't speak out because they have families to feed and a morgage to pay.
