Supreme Court Upholds Health Care Mandate

[CRedskinsRule]

Looking at one sampling of the detail points on the medical survey (it won't let me cut and paste, so here is the specific link:MIRROR, MIRROR ON THE WALL: AN INTERNATIONAL UPDATE ON THE COMPARATIVE PERFORMANCE OF AMERICAN HEALTH CARE)

Under timeliness of care:
Waiting time to see a specialist less than 4 weeks: US rank #1, (with 74% saying true, next closest was 69%, with others in the 40-50% area)

Had to wait over 4 months for elective surgery: US rank #3 (with only 8% saying true, others had percentages of over 25%)

But one we come in last : Primary care practices that have an arrangement where patients can be seen by a doctor or nurse if needed when the practice is closed, not including ER (high is 89%, we are at 29%) but why do they say not including ER, that clearly would skew against how our system works. Add in ER as an option, and I imagine it would be a much closer comparison.

an axe to grind is an axe to grind whether liberal or conservative based.
