Quality Adjusted Remaining Years

= =
A feature of Obama Health Care

I have read in our local Letters to the Editor [a leftist newspaper] that people sympathetic to the Obama Health Care plan have pointed out their difficulties with their own health care insurance or that of others. A typical scenario revolved around the denial of paid coverage by the insurance companies.

Apparently these same people may not be aware of what is in store for them under Obama Health Care. It is called Quality Adjusted Remaining Years.

Quality Adjusted Remaining Years is a term I first heard from the lips of Dick Morris. Just dissect that phrase yourself, one word at a time - Quality Adjusted Remaining Years. If you are over age 65 and need an operation or expensive medication, the OK for treatment will depend on your age and the cost of your treatment.

It is apparent that these Letter writers have not considered what is very likely to occur under Obama Health Care. At age 70 for instance, suppose that The Health Care Chart reveals that you may have two years to live and that your treatment is estimated to cost $20,000. This means that your Quality Adjusted Remaining Years score $10,000 per year. The Health Care Chart may show that this treatment is too expensive given your age. So, take a pain pill.

Unlike our current health care options, if Obama Care treatment is denied, you will NOT have an option to seek treatment on your own in the USA. Medical service people will be penalized if they treat you. So, you will need to fly or sail to the Bahamas for treatment.

Remember, the most expensive health care times in the lives of citizens are in the remaining years. Our Obama - Public - Government Health Care plan, what ever it will be called, will save money by NOT treating seniors who are ill or injured.

Remember: 1. Limited or rationed Obama Care for seniors. 2. Take a pill. 3. No option to seek health care anywhere in the USA. Could these conditions be reasons why the Rasmussen national telephone poll announced on 8/15/09 showed that 54% of the people want NO health care legislation passed.

At the same time the out of touch Democrats, in their town hall meetings, say that the people who attend their meetings are not representative of the population. If the Big Time Dying Media were real news reporters, they would report these facts … the right jack
