    “It’s like we’re a second-class citizen,” she said. “We can’t get the coverage we need.”

    The rich will still get the care they need because cost isn't an issue. The working middle class will be forced into this inferior insurance and be treated like they are on Medicaid. This is Obama's plan and this is evil.

    Just had a friend get approved for Medicaid. She tried to get an appointment and found about a 4 year waiting list for new patients.

    In the Soviet Union, the saying was "we pretend to work, they pretend to pay us".

    For US government controlled insurance, it will be "we all now have insurance, no doctors take it".

    Yup, no doctors take Medicaid patients.🙄

    The right wing lies regarding the ACA are eventually going to come back to bite them; for further information review the "Boy who cried Wolf" story and the posts on this forum shortly after the 2012 election saying the stock market was now going to crash (down to 3000 I believe was the prediction) and the economy would collapse due to businessmen fleeing the country in droves (nice crystal ball, sasquatch).

    Nationally, 69 percent of doctors accept new Medicaid patients.

    Boo Hoo Hoo. I signed up for Obamacare awhile back, it saved me $$ on my healthcare, and it only took 15 min. Find something else to whine about!😛

    I'm not the guy whining. The guy who can't get a back surgery and is living in daily pain is the one that is whining. Perhaps you can send him a letter to tell him to cry a river.

    From the OP link:

    "CBS13 wasn’t able to reach the doctor tonight, and a late-hour contact with Blue Cross didn’t get to the bottom of it, so we’re still pushing for answers."

    CBA13 is still pushing for answers, but you have all you need. Why don't you call CBS13 and save them the time of actually investigating?
