"A public health insurance option that offered Medicare reimbursement rates would be acceptable to me as a health care provider"
Background:
We became Doctors to serve our patients. We did not become medical practitioners to serve insurance Companies. Just now Blue Cross and several other insurance companies are paying LESS than Medicare rates. And it is a matter of time before the others follow in their foot steps.
Some of the policy makers in Washington are stating that we, the Physicians, are against a Public option. This petition is to let them know that a majority of us are for a Public option.
Please pass this on to as many health care providers as you can.
Thanks
I have spent my evenings reading the comments from colleagues who are tired of fighting insurance companies just to give their patients basic care. It is clear that the narrative coming out of Washington does not reflect the reality we face in our clinics every single day.

Seeing this momentum grow confirms that I am not the only doctor tired of fighting insurance companies just to treat my patients. This support proves that policy makers can no longer ignore the practitioners who actually keep this system running.

Glad someone is speaking up. Sick of the lobbyist talking for us like we all hate the public option.

Finally some sanity. Tired of insurance companies calling the shots when i have patients waiting. Medicare rates are way better than the garbage these private plans pay.

YES. Do it. The insurance companies are completely out of control and dont care about the actual health care providers.

Need this bad. Private insurance keeps slashing rates while costs go up. Its not sustainable.
