This Should Make Senior Citizens Think Long And Hard About Obama’s Health Care Bill

UK Government ran healthcare news: Many elderly patients miss out on the scans, drugs and even basic health advice routinely given to the young. Elderly have not received heart treatments, including clot-busting drugs, that are given to the young without question.

And a study of 9,000 older adults last year – half of whom had serious medical conditions – found many were not getting basic care for conditions such as osteoarthritis, incontinence and osteoporosis.

Ministers initially resisted a blanket ban on NHS age discrimination because of concerns over the cost implications and suggestions it could even have the perverse effect of allowing hospitals to stop some treatments targeted at the elderly alone.

 Ageism in the NHS, which turns elderly patients into second-class citizens, is to be outlawed.

 

Health Secretary Andy Burnham says all patients – whether 20 or beyond 80 – deserve the same care and attention.

Today’s announcement follows alarming new evidence that older people are far less likely to receive a proper diagnosis and essential treatment.

Many elderly patients miss out on the scans, drugs and even basic health advice routinely given to the young.

Some doctors decide it is simply not worth the bother once patients pass a certain age.
But Mr Burnham told the Daily Mail: ‘I have decided it will become illegal for any difference to be made on age grounds. That’s quite a big undertaking. Read More

How long has this been going on, now to be making it illegal? Years under the government ran UK health care. I can see the same results happen here in the United States where Elderly patients will get less treatment than young people. We’re heard it from Barack Obama own mouth when he told the lady to give the elderly person a pill for pain and just let her die. People we have to do everything in our power to stop this health care bill from becoming law. If we care about our parents and grandparents then we better get on the phone to congress or writing letters to our congressmen! It will be too late once it passes!

Democratic leaders are balking at supporting a change in the rules that would let the public see the bills’ texts 72 hours before a vote.

"Nancy we can't let the people read the bill"

"Nancy we can't let the people read the bill"

Congress prepares to consider historic changes to the nation’s health care system, Democratic leaders are balking at supporting a change in the rules that would let the public see the bills’ texts 72

hours before a vote.

 An unusual coalition of conservatives, watchdog groups and a handful of Democrats has joined the push by Rep. Brian Baird , D- Wash. , to put the 72-hour measure into a binding rule for the House of Representatives . Similar efforts in the Senate haven’t gained much momentum.House

Democratic leaders have pledged transparency before. In their 2006 campaign book, in the “integrity” section, they vowed that legislation would be available to the public 24 hours before “consideration” of final versions. Read More

The way of the democratic Party is to hide what they’re doing from the very people who voted them into office. Here they’re hiding the fact that the health care bill will cost the American taxpayers much more than they’re willing to pay, that is if the taxpayers really knew what is in the bill. By the democrats not wanting you to read the bill should send up the biggest red flag we’ve ever seen. Its going to hurt the poor and middle income more than you think. I wonder if the black people understand that it will hurt them also and that Obama and the democrats in congress does not care as long as they get what they want. Obama isn’t for the poor whites and blacks, he’s for the elites of this country.

We whites and blacks need to come together and defeat this high costing health care bill that yes all our children will be paying for until they’re middle age adults if not longer. I know you mothers out there reading this be you black or white loves your children more than that!
