Back then had lunch with a 65 yo man who bragged that he read O care and voted for it. I told him he didnt know what he was reading. I'm a med transcriptionist. Its my job to know all med terms and how it fits into reports. I told him, What did you think about the section on medical devices? Didnt you tell me you have a pacemaker? According to O care, no medical devices for people 70 or older. So now pacemaker batteries last about 5 years. In other words youre not getting a new battery once this one needs replaced. You voted for your own death in 5 years.
And since you read it and so proudly voted for it, what do you think about new E codes? These are code numbers used to bill insurance, E stands for execution. There used to be just a few like by electric chair, by lethal injection, etc. Now they added beheading by machete, by guillotine, etc. So which would you prefer if given a choice?
Because this man so loudly and proudly said he read it & voted for it, I was just as loud. The entire restaurant including staff just stopped to listen in. Complete silence.
This may not answer your question but I recall Pelosi saying 'you have to pass it to know whats in it'. I can safely assume Congress had the same level of knowledge as this man.
Hail fellow medical transcriptionist! I transcribed for 18 years (retired now) and learned a lot about what really goes on in the system. Great post!
