Medicare fines over hospitals' readmitted patients - Topix
Thank God the Supreme Court upheld President Obama�s signature piece of legislation as CONSTITUTIONAL -- which every President before him tried, but failed to pass� the Affordable Care Act aka �OBAMACARE�.This story/article is a great example of one of the many benefits that the American people will begin to see as our quality of Health Care improves and as the costs of it begins to drop dramatically.
Catch-22 via Obamacare.Damned if you do and damned if you don't.How is this supposed to lower costs ?The hospitals will just find a way to avoid taking in critical patients such as saying they have no beds available.So a hospital gets fined for pulling a SOLYNDRA ?

Exactly.A third of the $716 billion Obamacare takes from Medicare comes from hospital reimbursements.
Hospitals just will not readmit the patients and thereby avoid the fines. The patient will be sent to another hospital to fix what the first did not and taxpayers get to pay for it all over again. Obamacare is a complete joke, robbery of the American people and the fine by the IRS is the gun in the ribs. Insurance companies can charge whatever they want and drop you or refuse coverage without any penalty on themselves if you cannot afford the premiums. The promised Public option woudl at least have been competition for the insurance companies. I am also waiting to have the same healthcare then Senator Obama had and promised to all American when he was running for office. No copays, deductables, immediate access to doctors, including specialists, and no premiums. Universal healthcare does exist in America, for politicians and illegal aliens who rely on American taxpayers to pay for their healthcare.
