He states facts about how our country spends so much more on healthcare then other countries. He talks about how if we adopted a Universal Healthcare System like countries such as France and Canada have, then we would save a lot of money.

This article argues that there are some disadvantages to the law that has passed to protect a person's privacy in regards to his healthcare. It claims that many doctor offices, hospitals, and pharmacies have gone overboard in order to protect the privacy of their patrons and employees. The article claims that HIPAA compliance is beginning to cost more to the healthcare industry than it saves.

Some believe equal healthcare is not really going to be equal. The author uses a car repair shop as an analogy. Depending on how much and what type of repair needs then we as americans decided what to repair and how much we will be able to pay. He claims that healthcare is about your social standing in life instead of what is causing your illness. Those with a comfortable living have a better chance to help themselves stay healthy than those whom living below the poverty level.

Right now we have a choice when it comes to medical care. But if certain healthcare reforms and laws pass this may change. If we have a choice between certain types of treatments, a "triage system" may decide our fate in the future.

This article is very staightforward. It provides the nitty gritty details of the new healthcare law in manageable chunks. Not only does this article summarize the law, it also plugs in numerical values to paint a picture of what PPACA is intended to do and how it affects the employee, employer (small and large), and government.

This article clarifies how Obamacare helps middle and lower class families. There are many ways that Obamacare assists in providing affordable healthcare, all of which are illustrated in the law signed by Obama on March 23, 2012 and one of them is by charging a 10% tax charge to tanning locations. There are so many changes that are in effect today due the law and more that are to become effective on October 1, 2013.

Many insurance do not cover midwife care in their policies.Midwife access is also limited in hospitals and many states limit the access and privileges of midwives. With healthcare costs on the rise, many families are looking at midwifery which is a far less expensive option than that of an OB. In other countries midwives do a majority of the births and maternity care which results in a fraction of the US costs.

Here's an interesting article about a study that found that births assisted by midwifes can help lower healthcare costs. It makes sense, since it would be more expensive to deliver a baby in a hospital. http://www.wiley.com/WileyCDA/PressRelease/pressReleaseId-107254.html

The healthcare system should really be able to check the immigration status of patients, from experience it makes it uncomfortable for others in the hospital. We recently went into the hospital and it felt like a party was going on in labor and delivery waiting room when there was about 20 people in there screaming at a football game. No matter how many times the nurse went in, the noise did not go away at all.

This presentation of the facts on Mandated Healthcare that has gone before the Supreme Court touches on the stated facts of the argument presented before the Justices. It makes a valid attempt to define the differences and similarities between what is called Obamacare and what is presented by Rep. Ryan in what the article refers to as "Ryancare."
