Washington Post suddenly realizes you can't keep your doctor, either

Now that they've realized that President Obama's healthcare disaster has been a multi-year parade of lies, the media finally seems interested doing a little digging. We've seen multiple scathing reports from ABC and CBS News, but today's example comes from the Washington Post. It seems they've suddenly realized that much like your preferred plan, Obamacare won't necessarily let you keep your doctor or your hospital either.

This is especially true if they're really good. From a WaPo report that will shock no one who's been paying even the slightest bit of attention:

As Americans have begun shopping for health plans on the insurance exchanges, they are discovering that insurers are restricting their choice of doctors and hospitals in order to keep costs low, and that many of the plans exclude top-rated hospitals. The Obama administration made it a priority to keep down the cost of insurance on the exchanges, the online marketplaces that are central to the Affordable Care Act. But one way that insurers have been able to offer lower rates is by creating networks that are far smaller than what most Americans are accustomed to. The decisions have provoked a backlash. In one closely watched case, Seattle Children’s Hospital has filed suit against Washington’s insurance commissioner after a number of insurers kept it out of their provider networks. “It is unprecedented in our market to have major insurance plans exclude Seattle Children’s,” said Sandy Melzer, senior vice president. The result, some argue, is a two-tiered system of health care: Many of the people who buy health plans on the exchanges have fewer hospitals and doctors to choose from than those with coverage through their employers. A number of the nation’s top hospitals — including the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota, Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles, and children’s hospitals in Seattle, Houston and St. Louis — are cut out of most plans sold on the exchange.

Amazing right? No. Of course it's not. The only people surprised by this are media goons who spent the last three years regurgitating the Democrat party line. So, if things are going to go down this way, what are the Obama faithful to do? We already have the answer. They'll do exactly what they're doing with the "like your plan keep your plan" line. Right now, if you say you like your plan and want to keep it, they claim that you're wrong to feel that way. You poor little idiots, you just don't understand that the plan you had wasn't the one you needed. As Democrats, they're looking at things from the lofty, exalted heights of statism. From their all-knowing vantage point, they're much more qualified to determine what's in your best interest than you are. You can't see it, because you're just ...ordinary. So, in order to spin this latest "revelation," they'll start telling you that you were wrong to want that doctor and that hospital in the first place. Places like Cedars Sinai and the Mayo Clinic might be OK for some people, but they're expensive, too focused on money, and you don't need all that rigmarole. You need one of the fine, low cost, possibly mediocre health care facilities the feds have selected for you, because government knows best. Just as they're targeting insurers, watch for the left to start attacking doctors and medical facilities as greedy, corporate, monsters who are interested in nothing but their bottom lines. It's the only way for delusional Dems to pretend they've dug themselves out of their 3 year "like you doctor, keep your doctor" lie.
