This is a big step for the American citizenry! Imagine a world power with no health insurance for its population. There are lots of well todo americans but the majority are still coping to shoulder their health expenses. Daghang mga taga Guindulman gamay ug pension, kon masakit mangoli kay mangita ug doktor laway.

I am for the Health care reform not because i am a Democrat but because i have seen so many unhealthy Americans who cant afford to see a doctor. Tinuod na imong giingnon Manay nga we are the most powerful country pero ang mga tawo daghan PANGAG ug MASAKITON nag paabut nalang nga mo grabe ang sakit dayun magpa admit sa ER kay wa man ikabajad pa tambal sa doktor. Mga tawo diri nanga KATOK na laman ug tinarbaho pero di kaaford ma doktor! NAUNSA man na??? MATIK MATIKA daw na ninyo nga against sa HCR. Isnt it ~~GREED?~~ haaaaa?

Oppose ko ani not because I am republican hahhaha.Health care reform means ang goberno nay magbuot pila ang i sweldo sa mga health care provider nato diri.There are significant dangers in limiting compensation.Look what happen in Philippines daghan nurses,doctor nag work abroad kay kung ang government na maghawid aning healthcare di na unya pud maayo ang serbisyo sa mga health provider. Ang U.S ang best sa field sa medicine.Daghan moanhi diri taga laing nasud kay diri magpaopera. This is not about health care it's about insurance reform.Kitang tanan satisfy sa kanindot ug serbisyo sa mga doctor ug ubang health provider diri sa U.S. Dapat ang health insurance ang i reform kay diha ang problema.Wa ta kadungog ug complain nga pang third world ang serbisyo sa mga hospital diri ug ubang health provider asa ta ing complain sa kamahal sa atong health insurance. Mao daghan di kaafford ug insurance diri kay overprice ra kaayo ang insurance diri.

I hear a lot of people complaining about the cost of their medications and care but do some people know how much it costs to become a health provider?

As we move towards nationalized care, the pay for providers will drop and potential leaders in the profession will not go into healthcare fields because they would never get out of debt or not at least for a very long time.

As American do we want to begin to abandon many of the reasons why we have become the richest, most powerful country in the history of the world. Bisan ang Pilipinas nabulahan sa U.S health care ang mga brilliant provider ing anhi diri kay kabalo sila mabayran gyud ilang gihaguan,gi studyuhan diri sa U.S unlike sa atua gicontrol sa goberno ilang sweldo. Tan awa grumpy kasagaran doctor sa atua murag sila nay Ginoo kay dili man sila satisfy sa ilang sweldo.
What I want people to look at is the way the Mayo Clinic runs their system. One of the best and lowest cost in the USA and they pay well enough to encourage people to research and develop cures/treatments. If we go to a gov plan like canada we will see a drop in availability and to a degree quality of care. Capitalism is a system that branches all types of government and actually runs the entire world. Just people here dont want to contribute without being "entitled" something. Work and earn it people. Yeah things can suck with insurance. I feel if the Gov was truly interested in helping the people, they wouldnt be attaching special bribes for each state hmm ang nebraska senator I mean. They would make a trimmed down bill and maybe enforce some regulation on the insurances. Dapat ang insurance ang i reform dili ang health care.

Speaking as a Medical Intern, this Health Reform Bill is of utter importance to all medical students and practicing physicians in the United States. It is of importance because this affects the overall health of the nation, as well as the basis of the future for those who are studying or are already practicing in the field.

We all know, given, that there are a substantial number of Americans that do not have health care insurance due to a plethora of reasons:
1. Lack of physicians/specialists in their area
2. Inability to access a health insurance provider
3. Financial depravity
etc,

The reason for this, friends, is to this day the United States still maintains a cap on all medical residency spots; these spots are required by a AMA (American Medical Association) in order to train graduated doctors in their specific field of interest; this means that throughout the United States there are set number of residency spots for residencies in: Family Practice, Emergency Medicine, Internal Medicine, Pediatrics, Psychiatry, General Surgery, Dermatology, Radiology, Urology, Obstetrics, Gynecology etc,. And additionally, the United States' Medical Institutions are only graduating limited amounts of doctors every year due to the rigidity of America's Pre-Medical curriculum, and Medical School Proper.

So, we are seeing an asymmetric situation. The demand is increasing (as population increases and as age-related problems increase), but are only given a limited amount of resources (physicians) due to the legal and medical / professional requirements being stringent.

At this current situation, it is impossible to treat all Americans and be expected to provide them with the BEST CARE that we can if we are to implement this health care reform immediately without changing some laws and increasing the amount of physicians we graduate/ or matriculate into society. Right now, as we speak, we are short in medical professionals. The United States' Medical System in understaffed. Not enough doctors, and surely not enough nurses. If we are to implement this reform bill truly and want to see effects, we will have to increase and lift the residency caps, graduate more medical students, and import more foreign graduates into the United States. We need more doctors, we need to graduate more physicians, or at least import more from abroad to address the current situation.

I am for a reform bill, considering the fact that as a physician-in-training, I and my peers cannot deny medical treatment to a patient. My heart is sympathetic to the poor and to the underprivileged as well as the ill. I entered and chose this profession because my heart calls me to it, to see the poor and ill and to aid them, to treat not only the body, the disease, but the person behind the disease.

There are others that enter this profession for the business / financial aspect of medicine. That, in my opinion, is the wrong reason to enter this field.

Even if the pay of a physician was decreased, I would not change my view.
To treat and care for a fellow man, and patient, is a privilege, and an honor.
IMHO.

I am a Republican, myself, but we cannot ignore the current health care situation, Raquel.

The politicians talk too much, bullshitt too much. Time is wasted in their arguments in the floor in congress..while the senators and the representatives litigate and litigate some more.

In the end, there are physicians who want to help patients, but cannot and are barred from treating them because of laws/regulations that are implemented by Congress with help and insistence by the Health Insurance Industry. I have seen patients been turned away for help because they do not have health insurance or cannot afford the treatment.

In the end, we need more doctors,..the reason why health care is so expensive is because of the limited amount of physicians.

This is beyond party lines now. Medical Care should be for all. In my honest opinion.
