It is amazing what mixed race socialist, anti-American foreign born muslim can accomplish, isn't it. Too bad the republicans don't have a track record to run on. Oh wait! They do. They can run on Bush's record. It was less than four years ago when he was president. I wonder why they don't talk about all the great successes of republican presidents?
That
s right Jerry, especially since they want to go back to the same policies!! If they believe they worked then they should talk about them AND Bush, the way they worship Reagan!
They are running as fast away from bush as Romney is running away from Romneycare! It is actually very comical.
... imagine if Obama pulled us out of a recession...
Any recovery (and it has been exceptionally weak) has happened in spite of his crony crapitalist policies.
Maybe I'll cheer when GM and Chrysler pay us back the $40 billion or so they owe the American taxpayer.
The Congressional Oversight Panel said over payments in bank bailouts amounted to a taxpayer-financed $78 billion, the findings added to the frustrations of lawmakers already wary of the $700 billion rescue plan, known as the Troubled Asset Relief Program...UNDER BUSH, which was a give away, not a loan....
Who owes WHAT to the tax payers??
I agree Sue. The damned banks need to pay back every penny as well.
Imagine if a Republican created a health care bill that prevented a family member from being able to obtain a life saving drug. Well Fuck Hope and Change because that's what is happening to my mother right now and according to the pharmacists it's because of the new health care law.
Assholes!!!!
I don't believe that for a minute Lisa!!
What I will say is this, my husband was prescribed a pill for COPD that was not approved by the FDA, so he had to jump through hoops to get Medicare to pay for it, and they are! You are your Mom need to do some work, this HC law will not allow her to die without the meds she needs, I just don't believe you....
Of course you don't believe it Sue.Because you believe anything President Hope and Change tells you.
Has nothing to do with the FDA or who pays for it. It has to do with the mfg are not getting reimbursed for non generic which is not available in generic. She's already been on the medication for afib through trail and error till they found the one that worked best and now they are being dictated to by the government.
My mother has 2 insurances and still can't get it.
One out of 10 employers are now dropping health insurance to their employees. This is like the sub prime mortgage crap. Here are all the goodies up front until you can't pay then we take your home or just let you die.
Oh and Hope and Change didn't en the war. He was following the time line to pull out
Like I said "FUCK HOPE AND CHANGE"!!!!
So what's the real story Lisa??

Pradaxa Now Covered by Medicare Part D!!

The new Coumadin alternative, Pradaxa, has recently become available on the Medicare Part D formulary. Medicare recipients finally have an affordable option to Coumadin.
The first Coumadin alternative for atrial fibrillation became available late last year and Medicare patients have been anxiously waiting for it’s inclusion in the Part D formulary ever since. With a hefty out-of-pocket cost at $250 a month, Pradaxa was much too expensive for most of the retired community.
Even though Pradaxa prevents more strokes than Coumadin, has no interactions with food (not even spinach) and requires NO monitoring (seriously, no more fingerstick checks!), many seniors could not rationalize paying $250 a month compared to Coumadin or warfarin which can cost as little as $4 per month. Now, 6 months after Pradaxa was approved by the FDA, Medicare Part D has multiple plans which will cover the cost of this expensive new drug. By searching the website www.medicare.gov, patients will be able to find Part D coverage and compare prices for individual plans. The monthly drug cost is still fairly expensive (from $30 to $50 a month) but this is still significantly less than out-of-pocket cost.
Patients who plan to switch to Pradaxa should confirm with their Part D provider that the drug is covered before trying to get the prescription filled. Here are some important tips to help make the switch:
Sue do you purposely avoid the facts. It's not that she is not covered, it's the fact that they are not manufacturing.
Good Lord!
Well DUH, maybe you should stop worrying about Obamacare and worry about your Mother taking a drug that could kill her, like thousands before her!! I say GOOD for the manufacturer halting the manufacture of a deadly drug!! Get real bitch...
she can't take Coumadin,it doesn't work for her.
They had to give her too high a dose to get her Coumadin levels up.
And it's not Paradaxa SHE CAN'T GET. Man you really don't read. I said I would be worried if she can't get that too because you can't just stop that cold turkey. She can't get Norpace 100 MG extended release.
I'm exhausted trying to reason with you.
This came from your blogpost, YOUR words...
Does anyone have any suggestions about what to do regarding this medication?
I am really concerned about the Pradaxa she is on if she can't get that one. Because you can' just stop that cold turkey.
Duh! That what The Mythical Ronnie Raygun did all while crushing the testicles of Gorbachaev!
Government isn't the problem. Republicans in Government is the problem...
