My mom took a bad fall a few days ago. She didn't break any bones but got
seriously bruised up. She's started feeling really bad today. God knows
what's going on. This little town doesn't have any doctors right now that
will accept Medicare because of the expense of hiring people full time to
deal with the bureaucracy so they can get paid. I called my doctor (the are
open on Satrudays) to request an appointment. They say that they can't take
her because they don't take medicare patients. I told them that I would pay
cash. They said that they cannot take cash. They could get their license
revoked. She has a supplemental medical policy. They can't take that either.
We're forced to go to the ER to get her any help. Luckily, there's one here
that is separate from the big hospital complex here so there's less of a
chance of her contacting a random killer respiratory bug than there would be
if we went to the big Medical center here.

Amazing..........I'm off to the ER to sit with the illegal aliens who will
get their healthcare free. I, OTOH, will get a bill for around $1000.00.
