Phyllis's health care story

Note: I feel very strongly about the health care crisis that is crippling our country. As such, I feel that we as Universal Life Church minister's should be outspoken on this and several other issues, but as this is the one that is at the forefront of debate in Washington right now, I will be highlighting stories such as this for the next few weeks or so. Tell me what you think by sharing your thoughts on the ULCMA forum.

Phyllis's health care story

I am a practicing physician assistant. Almost every day an insurance company denies something that I have tried to do for one of my patients, either prescribe a medicine or order a procedure. I have now started to prepare patients for the possibility that their health care will be "rationed" by somebody at their insurance company and follow it with this: "the people opposed to a new system of health care in this country want you to believe it will end up 'rationing'health care. Health care is and has been rationed for a very long time. I think it's about time the playing field was leveled and we all understood what the rules are." I'm soing my part to educate the health care consumer, are you? Call your members of Congress and demand that this happens!
