[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You clearly have never had to use healthcare from military care facilities.  There are *lots* of problems with government run healthcare.  Civilian care is much more efficient. [/quote]

I always hear people say that, but I’ve been to some truly horribly run, inefficient civilian healthcare clinics. My sister is a physician and I’ve seen how things are run behind-the-scenes, and it’s BAD.

For sure there are good ones but let’s stop pretending private health care is all a well-oiled machine run by slick businesspeople. Most have no clue what they’re doing. [/quote]
And you have the choice to go elsewhere. If it's your only option, you're stuck with it.  People tell me all the time how lucky I am for my healthcare that costs nothing at an MTF, and then two friends came to visit me when I had a baby and were shocked at the level of care. They changed their opinion quickly. 
Giving the government a bigger hand in it is not the solution. Insurance reform is where it needs to start. [/quote]

PP. I’m on Medicaid, my kids are on Medicaid, and we have the option to go wherever we want. I gave birth to my second in a state-of-the-art hospital with top notch care and even the food was delicious.

Not sure where you live but my experience certainly hasn’t been poor quality care and being told who I must see. [/quote]

Sure tons of great docs accept medicaid and lots of hospitals don't either. [/quote]
