Obama care, not even the military can keep their own doctor!
hopefully this does not happen. soldiers trying to find a good health plan in Afghanistan might have to travel to Europe for a doctor in their network.
Insurance caseworker: gee sir, we are sorry but bullet and IED wounds are not covered under obamacare, you will have to pay for the emergency room visit. Had you gone to an urgent care we would have paid for the visit, but not the follow up.
Health Policy Expert Proposes Troops Pay For Their Own Healthcare In Exchange For Higher Salaries
Michael Cannon, a health policy expert at the libertarian Cato Institute, has proposed a radical idea to reform the healthcare system that provides medical treatment and care to our nation’s service members via the Department of Veterans Affairs. Cannon proposes that the government make troops pay for their own healthcare in exchange for higher salaries.
In an essay published last week, Cannon proposed dropping “free” healthcare that is provided to soldiers and instead offering better pay to soldiers who will then purchase their own healthcare. Cannon proposed offering vouchers to veterans that are no longer serving. The vouchers would be used to pay strictly for healthcare-related costs.
