Urgent!… Death Panels Are Here!… Doctors Plea for Help!

Doctors across America are sick. A new and desperate plight has
surfaced in emergency rooms across the nation for both patients and
doctors alike. The following blog by one valiant doctor speaks for
thousands of doctors being forced to go against their natural instincts
and abilities to allow further hospital care and re-admit patients. ~ Sharon Sebastian

Effective October 2012, doctors at
hospitals across the land are being forced by the Obama administration
to break their Hippocratic Oath.

Obama’s revamped Medicare has now begun
forcing doctors at hospitals to turn their backs on patients no matter
how critical their need for re-admittance.

On the surface, the Obamacare
changes to Medicare appear as though they are truly in the interest of
giving better care to patients. But, doctors are reporting that the
rules are changing with mandate-creep that is interfering with both
medical care and re-admittance to hospitals.

Obamacare has reportedly
activated medical directives to hospitals through Medicare that,
according to doctors, will cost thousands of lives and have become
precursors to Obama’s inhumane and authoritarian Death Panels.

The following excerpts are used with permission from the blog of Dr. Thomas Hamilton,
an American doctor who speaks truth to power.

Dr. Hamilton describes
how he was torn between providing medical help to a very sick senior or
turning her away to face a certain and tragic fate without treatment.

“It was my plan to
admit this woman to the hospital. I found out a little later that this
same woman had been a patient here just slightly more than 2 weeks ago
with a DIFFERENT DIAGNOSIS. I was told that if this woman was admitted,
the hospital would not be paid.

The new Medicare rule now is that if the same Medicare patient is
re-admitted to the hospital within 30 days, the hospital will not be
paid.

When they first started this nonsense they said this only applied
to patients with the same diagnosis. Now they have “expanded” the rule
to include re-admissions for any reason.

So if you’re in the hospital
for pneumonia, and 3 weeks later, you break your leg… too bad.
Medicare will not pay the hospital to fix your leg.

A little later a man was brought in by ambulance, very sick, in pain,
and near death. I did my usual evaluation and treatment, doing my best
to ease pain and stabilize this man’s illness. He needed to be admitted.

To my chagrin I found out that he had been treated for the SAME problem
at a DIFFERENT HOSPITAL about 10 days prior. If I admitted this man,
our hospital would be paid nothing. I admitted the man.

My friends I am caught in a terrible position. I could have given
treatment to both of these people and sent them out. There is no doubt
that both of them would have died. Oh, I could also be sued for
malpractice, but nobody cares about that.

The good doctor goes on to explain:

“As more and more are added to the Obamacare rolls, there
will be less and less access. People will get sicker and yes, people
will die because of it. I had a sick and sinking feeling in the pit of
my stomach today after both of these incidents.

We have a good hospital.
Our nurses, technicians, and support staff work very hard and they
deserve to be paid for their efforts.

I am not so worried about myself
as I am near retirement, but I worry for all the younger folks in the
healthcare business and I worry about our seniors who are in the long
run going to be sacrificed as the government implements cost cutting
shenanigans to cover up their broken promise made way back in 1964.

In a recent article, Sick – No Appeal – It’s Obamacare, I wrote:

“Slashed doctors’ pay, reduced services to patients of
all ages and medical devices and testing equipment made by cheap
overseas labor are cutting-block initiatives by the Obama government.

Already targeted are our most defenseless—our mentally and physically
disabled in institutionalized care who require the most medical
assistance at a higher cost?

Obamacare is not about care. It is not
about using America’s advanced medical skills and technology, the finest
in the world, to save lives of Americans regardless of race, age or
class. It is about control. It is a power play that takes over one
eighth of the U.S. economy.

If not repealed, it is the unveiling of how a
once great medical system became an ugly and deadly government-run
‘business’ in America.”

It is incomprehensible how Barack Obama can throw billions of dollars
at political cronies, irresponsible unions, failed and bankrupt “green”
projects, elaborate vacations, contraceptives, sterilizations and
abortions-on-demand when those critical dollars could go towards
improving medical care for all Americans from newborns to seniors.

Under
Obamacare, average Americans and their families are targeted.

Where is
Obama’s oft-repeated demand for “fairness” and an “equal playing field”
when he cunningly exempts himself, his elitist friends and political
cronies from the perils of his signature law—Obamacare?
