From the article... Good luck finding a doctor under Obamacare
New York doctors are treating ObamaCare like the plague, a new survey reveals.
A poll conducted by the New York State Medical Society finds that 44 percent of MDs said they are not participating in the nationâs new health-care plan.
Another 33 percent say theyâre still not sure whether to become ObamaCare providers.
Only 23 percent of the 409 physicians queried said theyâre taking patients who signed up through health exchanges.

It really is remarkable how the lapdogs continue to defend this monstrosity. I'm perfectly able to admit the old system was for shit...there is no question that it needed to be addressed, yet the libs act as if this new system is the panacea...they tout the propoganda of "more comprehensive plans at affordable prices"...complete Orwellian horseshit..
And yet, the "devil is in the details". Even at first glance, just about everyone can see that this new system is broken and we haven't even gotten to the "nuts and bolts" of everyday healthcare. It's as if the crooks who invented this new system were counting on a "PR makeover" and completely f'd that up.
Congratulations ââ¬ÅHope and Changeââ¬Â voters! You got exactly what you voted for, and now Obama is going to make you pay for it.
This young liberal over at the LA Times is seriously disappointed now that heââ¬â¢s finding out he has to pay a lot more for healthcare. He feels betrayed.
from LA Times:
The Obama administration came out with a report Monday arguing that 1 million single adults between the ages of 18 and 35 will be eligible for an Obamacare insurance plan costing less than $50 a month.
Thatââ¬â¢s news to me.
Iââ¬â¢m a healthy 34-year-old with a taxable income hovering right around the Obamacare subsidy level who, for the last several years, has purchased a relatively inexpensive catastrophic health insurance plan from Blue Shield. I get to see the doctor four times a year for a $30 co-pay, and I wonââ¬â¢t have to spend the rest of my life working off the debt if I get hit by a bus.
Last month, however, I received a letter from my insurance company informing me that my plan was ââ¬Åno longer availableââ¬Â due to ââ¬Ånew requirements for health coverage under the Affordable Care Act.ââ¬Â I am being funneled into the closest equivalent plan under the new California health exchange, and my monthly premium is going to rise by nearly 43% to $214 a month.
My old plan was as bare-bones as they came, so I assumed that even though the new plan would cost more, my coverage would improve under Obamacare, at least marginally.
It did not.
Under my old plan, my maximum out-of-pocket expense was $4,900. Under the new plan, Iââ¬â¢m on the hook for up to $6,350. Copays for my doctor visits will double. For urgent-care visits, they will quadruple. Though slightly cheaper plans exist if I decide to shop around on the exchange, I will lose my dental coverage should I switch.
Needless to say, I am not pleased.
Most young, middle-class Americans I know are happy that millions of previously uninsured people will receive free or heavily subsidized insurance under the Affordable Care Act.
We just didnââ¬â¢t realize that, unless we had health insurance at work, weââ¬â¢d be the ones paying for it...

Better policies at higher prices is the spin... but you are getting second tier healthcare no matter how much you pay. The Medical Cartel wrote this s$&t and it's just to squeeze money out of people by forcing them to pay for something they can't collect on. The politicians are going to spin this mess so they can get the votes they are buying with everybody else's money of course and the MSM is working feverishly on their behalf.
Wage and price controls always lead to corruption, black market, multi- tiered systems, etc.. The people that ran Russia lived great while the masses lived quite badly. Same sh*t different century. Our politicians know this, they knew it when the Insurance and Medical Cartel was writing the ACA and they will continue to know it while they bullshit enough voters to stay on top...

(CNSNews.com) - The fiscal 2014 budget justification released by Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Administrator Marilyn Tavenner explains that CMS is requesting that Congress appropriate $803.5 million for operations and management of the Obamacare exchanges during the fiscal year so that, among other things, CMS can ââ¬Åensure the integrity of programs that redistribute tens of billions of dollars.ââ¬Â
Overall, CMS wants $2 billion to run what it calls the ââ¬ÅFederal Marketplaceââ¬Â for health insurance.
