@Breck1011 Of course there is a system for those below the poverty line. This applies to single mothers, those on unemployment (lost their job, not slackers) and the elderly. We also have a pension system though. This will pay for the elderly once they retire. It’s by no means perfect, but it’s a far better system then America has. Before you try to disprove it, realize that I’m an American…I’ve lived under both systems…I prefer this one 150%.
@aeon23 Wait, Wait, Wait. Are you saying that if someone doesn’t pay in, they don’t get medical coverage? So how do the 50% of Americans that don’t pay any tax get coverage? Are you saying that they will just get sick and die because there isn’t a free ride? I don’t care what wing you listen to, that just won’t fly. You are leaving 150 million people out of the system. I am not saying Universal health care is a bad idea. We have that at my work. You work, Your covered.
@Breck1011 – This system isn’t a free ride. If you don’t pay for it, you can’t use it. I know you’re trying to prove your argument that universal health care is a bad idea and couldn’t possibly work, but you’re basing your argument on right wing propaganda. The truth of the matter is universal health care works just fine. You lost the argument as soon as you started it. This is because you argue from a platform of ignorance. You’ve never experienced universal health care first hand.
@aeon23 That sounds great, is it all paid for by tax payers? Do the 50% of people in the United states that don’t pay any tax get a free ride off the people that work for a living? What makes it worth while for people to keep paying and paying for the lazy people that just want a free ride? Should they just be happy to be helping?
I am also a physician and current CMIO, and I thought this was quite funny. Even though it is not accurate for every system (mine included) due to improved automation and information sharing, it is very accurate for many systems in the US. It is entertaining, and most of my physician friends agree.
@I2GhettoEnufffaU As a real doctor and healthcare IT consultant, I do not completely agree. IT in healthcare is in it’s infancy (or perhaps it’s toddler years), but very exciting things are on the horizon…
Also, we use copies of records all the time, so I don’t know where your other notion came from.
@clancelotta and also, IT systems aren’t even the FUTURE, they are the NOW…get with it caveman…and no doctor’s office will accept another doctor’s offices photocopied forms u idiot!
@clancelotta o shove it up ur money hungry ass, physicians dont even do shit, the antibiotics do the job for them! i can diagnose myself better! ive been to so many different physicians my whole life and maybe all but one or two couldn’t do anything but refer me to a specialist, waste of time!
The VAST majority receive care within their local health system, so, while nice, is the cost of being able to access a Vermont resident’s med list / health history in Nebraska worth the cost? Especially when the patient can actually TELL you his/her history and any tests can be readily obtained from the remote health system’s medical records department via fax or email within (usually) 10-20 minutes.
I enjoy tech and I use EHRs. Local health systems should choose what works for them.
To all you anti-big business types: where do you think the idea of a nationwide health-care computer system comes from? Who profits from the sale of equipment, software, maintenance contracts, and whatever personal data future regulations allow them to sell to third parties for marketing/research purposes?
Actually, I’m a physician… not an Internet armchair philosopher.
I personally see anywhere from 20-45 patients per day. I not only use
EHRs daily, but I am also personally involved in the implementation
of our entire health systems’s new Electronic record.
You?
God forbid anyone take responsibility for their own care! Imagine interacting with a doctor all by YOURSELF! Wouldn’t it be better if government (mommy) did it for me? Instead of maintaining a copy of your own health history / med list and PHOTOCOPYING it (10 cents) for new providers, lets tax the crap out of the 53% of the population that still pays taxes to fund a billion dollar electronic beaurocracy that raises the cost of everything!

this video is why we use the internet for almost everything now. calling people one company at a time (in the 90′s) sucked.

This is a rediculous comparison. No one ever crashed a hospital into the World Trade Center. Keep the government’s hands off my Medicare!
This was great
I hope to show to my students
Very well done, and so true.
I swear you go to a hospital and you fill out repeat the same damn history six times. And that’s when you’re only going through the emergency room….

@I2GhettoEnufffaU Wow…..I don’t quite know how to respond to that one (except maybe with some Thorazine….)

@clancelotta Let me guess – you’ve never worked in or around the healthcare system, right?
