ObamaCare is a Quintuple Win, a No-brainer

The 2018 Report on the Healthcare Success-story

In ObamaCare five partners work in concert to deliver social justice in the pursuit of a healthy American population. America: where health insurance is a human right.

First. The civil servant looks after the common good, and assigns the scarce medical resources where they are craved most. This highly responsible task needs a complex set of RULES to guarantee racial and gender justice. Panels of highly educated civil servants, in concert with community representatives, have decided what therapy and which drugs work in a given set of circumstances. Not only the age of the patient, but also his or her social background, earlier habits (i.e. smoking, drinking) and lifestyle (i.e. active versus sedentary) define if the civil servant grants the treatment or the drug. He or she makes sure a non-deserving person doesn't get treatment or drugs, better spent on a more deserving person. The shortage of medical resources obliges not to waste them.

New revolutionary treatments and new expensive drugs are approached with suspicion. The life of the patient can't be gambled with. The Progressive nature of ObamaCare uses Conservative principles in spending on new drugs and treatments. Refusing to pay their fair share of taxes, pharmaceutical companies cowardly moved their research and headquarters out of the USA during the last eight years. Foreign countries, like Brazil, China and India, develop now most of the new drugs and the high-tech machines, used during medical procedures. Distrust, vis-à-vis these sources is warranted. Moreover, the successful devaluation of the US dollar over the last few years makes these novelties way too expensive anyway.

Second. The politician, as the ultimate boss of the civil servant, guarantees the correct administering of the required healthcare to deserving patients only. This is socially just. To be able to deliver this respected public service, the politician receives adequate resources from the government to maintain, house and equip a strong enough staff to intervene in the decision process of the public servants on behalf of every deserving sick constituent. Politicians represent the people, thus they know what is best for the people.

The public servant denies all expensive care at first, and saves a lot of the community's money in the process. Delaying a healthcare decision liberates resources to more deserving people. Only after receiving sufficient and documented input from the politician, will the civil servant grant the treatment or the drugs to the patient in question. The politician is able to prove his utmost importance towards his or her constituents, in delivering access to scarce healthcare resources, consolidating his reelection in the process.

Third. Doctors are not any longer paid per service, but are now paid a generous monthly compensation by the Government. This allows the doctor to study the Rules about what treatment or what drug really works in a given set of circumstances. These diagnostic highly sophisticated Rules are distributed on a very powerful nation-wide computer-system named G.O.D. (stands for Good Obama Decisions) The better the doctor understands the G.O.D., the more patients she will be able to process per day. The computer decides diagnostics and the remedies. The doctor's most important task is to detect and fight fraud. She must be sure the patient is really sick and deserving of the treatment.

Another positive result of ObamaCare: well-rested doctors make less medical errors. Statistics from the past show how these regrettable errors created much hardship and sorrow for over 100,000 patients each year in the pre-ObamaCare time. At the same time doctors are now liberated from the high cost of malpractice insurance. Doctors can't be sued anymore. As employees of the Government they are now protected by the unlimited power of the Government. The G.O.D. is never wrong. Medical malpractice is now simply impossible.

Fourth. In a blatant egoist reaction during the first years after ObamaCare was enacted, too many doctors left their profession or moved abroad. This early problem of a lack of doctors is now completely solved, thanks to the empowerment of the nurses. For too many years nurses had been the kick-ball of doctors and administrators. Thanks to the highly sophisticated G.O.D. and modern day interconnected computers, nurses are able to diagnose the patient. Nurses feed test results in the computer. G.O.D. runs the medical data in combination, with the complete background and DNA of the patient, against the Rules, and decides the correct treatment. The revolutionary idea to adapt the patients and his or her ailments to the never failing Rules delivers up-to-date universal healthcare.

Since nurses are now practically doing the same job as the doctors, social justice demanded they got paid the same salary. The number of years of study for aspiring doctors has been cut in half.

Recent tests to take nurses and doctors completely out of the process by allowing the patient to communicate directly with the G.O.D. are very promising. Huge amounts of public resources will be saved in the future.

Fifth. The patient is sure to receive the best possible care. The fact that President Obama himself selected the members of the Panels behind the G.O.D, reassures the patient of the unbiased nature of their decisions.

Thanks to the patient's yearlong support for his or her local politician, the patient is sure to be cared for in a manner that guarantees social justice, while limiting the drain on finite civic resources.

The patient doesn't need to research any longer which doctor is the best, which one has the most experience, since the public servant will now conveniently decide for the patient to which doctor to go to. How easy can it be? The patient is liberated from the hassle of choosing the best health insurance, because the government pays for all the medical needs. The simplicity of the single payer system was THE positive surprise four years ago. Gone are the days of negotiating with healthcare insurance companies. They don't exist anymore.

Best of all, the patient can now be treated by any doctor or nurse any where in the country in any facility assigned to the patient by the civil servant. G.O.D. with all the patient's medical information and DNA is accessible from anywhere in the world.

ObamaCare is without a doubt a quintuple win for people with no brains.
