Single-Payer Healthcare Now

This is why it was always going to be a bad idea (when it was the Republicans' idea, and when it was the Democrats' idea) to run healthcare reform through for-profit insurance companies:

After overcoming website glitches and long waits to get Obamacare, some patients are now running into frustrating new roadblocks at the doctor's office.

A month into the most sweeping changes to healthcare in half a century, people are having trouble finding doctors at all, getting faulty information on which ones are covered and receiving little help from insurers swamped by new business.

...To hold down premiums under the healthcare law, major insurers have sharply cut the number of doctors and hospitals available to patients in the state's new health insurance market.

...Of course, complaints about outdated provider lists and delays in getting a doctor's appointment were common long before the healthcare law was enacted. But some experts worry the influx of newly insured patients and the cost-cutting strategies of health plans may further strain the system.

To hold down premiums. Cost-cutting strategies. Those are terrific euphemisms for "maximizing profits."

Insurance companies aren't in the healthcare business. They're in the making money business. And their decisions will always and forever prioritize profits over people.
