Largest health insurer on Colorado exchange collapses

[Great-Kazoo]

Our kids have always gone to a Doctors office that took our ChampVA insurance. Basically these are doctors that take medicaid, government type insurance. Since this all started we have had a heck of a time finding a new doctors office for my kids. Almost everyone around here stopped taking government insurance. My wifes Doctor quit and retired early and my kids doctor did the same thing.

More & more are either leaving practice OR have this notice in their newspaper ads. WE DO NOT ACCEPT INSURANCE. I told the sposue screw it. Let the IRS penalize you next year.

The true believers in the comment section of the denverpost are blaming Gardner the the R's for cutting funding and or touting how much they've saved since Ocare started

The other twist is that they setup 'concierge programs' where you have to spend thousands a year for the privilege of being a patient. You still have to pay for each visit.

Where's the incentive to become a doctor when the government sets prices?
