Sure, You'll Be Able to Keep Your Doctor

Of course, he or she may be in manacles...

Virginia Democrat Calls For Forcing Doctors To Accept Medicare And Medicaid Patients
FYI last night at the Great Falls Grange debate, Democrat delegate candidate Kathleen Murphy said that since many doctors are not accepting medicaid and medicare patients, she advocates making it a legal requirement for those people to be accepted.

She did not recognize that the payments are inadequate to cover the doctors' costs. She also did not recognize there is a shortage of over 45,000 physicians now and that it is forecast to be 90,000 in a few years.
Because that will be the only way they'll be able to keep enough physicians working to satisfy the needs of Obamacare and hold the costs down.

Hold the costs down?  Who am I kidding?
