Neurosurgeon: Consequence of Obama Care on patients over 70
On Nov. 22, 2011, Mark Levin the host of a Chicago’s WLS radio talk show received a phone call from a neurosurgeon. According to the neurosurgeon, under Obama’s health care plan, patients are called “units” and all patients over 70 years of age who need advanced neurosurgery will be given “comfort care” instead! Comfort care: “Medical care that is focused on relieving symptoms and optimizing patient comfort. Comfort care does not seek to cure or aggressively treat illness or disease.” (Definition from http://dying.about.com/od/glossary/g/Comfort-Care.htm) In other words, patients over 70 needing advanced brain surgery to save their lives will be denied the surgeon’s care!
