New Hampshire Democratic Senator Jeanne Shaheen says you can keep your doctor under Obamacare…..if you are willing to pay more

February 4, 2014

 New Hampshire Democratic Senator Jeanne Shaheen ran around the Granite State during the Obamacare debate and repeatedly parroted Barack Obama’s if you like your plan you can keep your plan lie of the year to anyone who would listen.

  Of course this turned out not to be true and she was hit with a devastating ad for repeating this lie. Soon after the American people realized they were lied to Zeke Emanuel defended this lie by stating it was the truth…..if you were willing to pay more to keep you plan or your doctor:

But look, if you want to pay more for an insurance company that covers your doctor, you can do that. This is a matter of choice. We know in all sorts of places you pay more for certain — for a wider range of choices or wider range of benefits.The issue isn’t the selective networks. People keep saying, Oh, the problem is you’re going to have a selective network–”

“Well, if you lose your doctor or lose your hospital–”

“Let me just say something,” said Emanuel. “People are going to have a choice as to whether they want to pay a certain amount for a selective network or pay more for a broader network.”

“Which will mean your premiums will probably go up.”

“They get that choice. That’s a choice they always made

  And now that the Democrats have their talking points Jeanne Shaheen is once again parroting the propaganda. During a recent interview she said the following:

“At least for people who are willing to pay more, that they have that option of going to their doctor and hospital no matter what their insurer does,” Shaheen stated during a radio interview on WKXL on Friday.

  What a fraud! It is funny but when Barack Obama promised the American people they could keep their plans and their doctors if they liked them I  do not remember there being any qualifiers. In fact I thought Obamacare was supposed to lower the costs of healthcare, but now we are finding out that many Americans will have to pay a premium if they wish to keep what they had before Obamacare went into effect. And this is more affordable?

  The last line in the ad I alluded to above stated “if you like your Senator you can keep her, if you don’t you know what to do.”

  Yes we do!

      It is a win-win for them now that they can create a market place and force participation.

    Really gets me how anybody would support the Democrats after this disaster. It is tough to tamper with something more personal that a person’s healthcare.
