And that will not be happening in regards to ObamaCare. You will have government officials making the determination. And for those that want to bring up insurance companies, it was not the insurance company denying a transplant in this case. [/quote]

You seem very confident about this. Can you point to the part of the ACA that would give government officials additional powers this regard?

From Klein's article:

[i]In 2010, shortly after President Obama's health care legislation was signed into law, I dubbed Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius the "Empress of Obamacare" for the vast new powers she inherited. Reading through the text of the law, I counted more than 2,500 references to the secretary of HHS, of which more than 700 referred to instances in which she "shall" do something and more than 200 cases in which she "may" take regulatory action.

And Politifact reversed it's position re: Mich McConnell saying that HHS put a gag order about the impact of ObamaCare:

So I'm to trust HHS?[/quote]
