Californians Learn They Can’t Keep Their Doctors Under ObamaCare

Covered California, the Golden state’s ObamaCare exchange, is turning some residents away from their longtime doctors, despite President Obama’s repeated promises that Americans could keep both their health care plan and their physicians.

One California man contacted his doctor to discover that he cannot keep his family doctor, and must find another who will accept his new plan.

“I wanted to cry,” Brent Undrage told KPIZ-CA, a local TV news station. “I’ve been going [to my clinic] for 26 years. I enjoyed them and trusted them and wanted to keep them as my doctors.”

ObamaCare is proving to be detrimental to sacred doctor-patient relationships. It’s clear that this failed law is anything but a patient-cemented approach to health care.

From Washington Free Beacon:

With more and more doctors not accepting Covered California insurance, the state’s Obamacare exchange, Californians are learning they can no longer keep their doctor like President Obama promised.

KPIX-CA reports California residents are calling the move a “bait-and-switch”, in which the doctors they were promised they would keep are now turning them away.
