I finally found a pdf copy of the House of Representatives healthcare bill I could download.  I am not about to print all 1,100 pages, but I am going to copy parts of the bill and post them here.  This is not ‘fishy’ information–it will be taken directly from the bill.

From Page 58:

5 ”(D) enable the real-time (or near real6

time) determination of an individual’s financial

7 responsibility at the point of service and, to the

8 extent possible, prior to service, including

9 whether the individual is eligible for a specific

10 service with a specific physician at a specific fa11

cility, which may include utilization of a ma12

chine-readable health plan beneficiary identi13

fication card;

 

That sounds to me like healthcare rationing.  I don’t want the government determining whether or not I can get a knee replacement!
