Sixteen states have, according to Kaiser Health News, set a limit on the number of prescription drugs that will be covered for Medicaid patients. And, due to the Medicaid expansion along with the federal subsidy for health-care premiums that will be available to people earning up to 400 percent of the poverty level, many more will be somewhat or completely dependent on Obamacare for their health care.
Phil Galewitz, reporting for Kaiser Health News, said that,“some people say it’s a matter of you know states are throwing things up against the wall to see what might work, so states have tried, they’ve also tried formularies where they’ll pick certain brand name drugs over other drugs. So states try a whole lot of different things. They’re trying different ways of paying providers to try to maybe slow the costs down.”
Galewitz added: “So it seems like Medicaid’s sort of been one big experiment over the last number of years for states to try to control costs, and it’s an ongoing battle, and I think drugs is just now one of the … latest issues. And it’s a relatively recent thing, only in the last 10 years have we really seen states put these limits on monthly drugs.”
As the Affordable Care Act was being pushed through Congress, several warned about the rationing that would occur. What was originally scoffed at by some liberal groups is now becoming a reality.
National Right To Life has confirmed that Obamacare contains “multiple provisions that will, if fully implemented, result in government-imposed rationing of lifesaving medical care.”
What that means, at length, is that the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) will have the power to impose “quality and efficiency” measures on health care providers, based on recommendations by the Independent Payment Advisory Board. This board has the purpose of forcing private health care spending below the rate of medical inflation.

The end game of ObamaCare is to cause individuals and businesses to become so addled and confused that they quit their current policies and just pay the fine (tax). All leading to a rationed single-payer system ... quasi Medicare for all!

Funny how life saving medical care is at risk but Abortion and Contraception are gaurrenteed rights and will be provided at all costs.
