Bigboy,
The behavior your describing and what was told to you by the doctor has been going on since there was health insurance. I wouldn't blame the affordable care act for that, if anything this act holds the insurance companies more responsible for there decisions on patient care, they are now required to spend 85% of their income on patient care. I'm not a fan of being forced to buy health insurance or be penalized, and there are problems with this law that hopefully will be worked out soon, but I think we are moving in the right direction. The insurance companies don't want to pay and they intimidate and provide inducements to physicians to minimize the care provided and expenses involved.
The point is they said about Obama care there was no death panels just another lie.
big boy I am 74 I hope in your head you think like a 20 yr old. It keeps you feeling young and more in control. No one wants to hear what is wrong with us physically.
In fact I hate going out with my wife's friends at her school reunions. I hear about how many pills they take a day. Go out no one fights over picking up the check. They talk about dividing the bill 7 ways and what percentage to tip. To me they are really old.
There afraid of everything now. Is their social security going down. The crazy thing is two of her friends were highly decorated heros in the Vietnam war.
One has an on line book about him and his group. But those days are gone brother.
