It’s Almost Impossible to Make a Good Irrational Decision

The polarizing nature of politics has gotten the American people making irrational decisions about their favorite candidate and the government policies they peddle. The realities of the Affordable Care Act has hit the taxpayers where it hurts most and we are all watching the decay of quality healthcare due to its design. ACA’s design was to create chaos so it opens the door to single payer healthcare system. A single payer system that leaves your doctor with a choice between to become a agent of the government or go out of business. 

The cost of government control can be great if the the regulations don’t go in your favor for the treatment you may need. The insurance companies will not cover doctors or equipment out of network and leaving the patient bills to pay for years to come. Many times doctors will sell out to hospitals unbeknown to the patient and the patient will receive sticker shock from the hospitals extra costs. 

Dr. Georges goal isn’t to alarm you but to arm you with knowledge on how to navigate this bloated and costly system. If people can see or hear what is happening from someone who is experiencing it, it can help you make some conscience decisions.
