9 Latest Lies About the Healthcare Bill

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


FactCheck.org, a non-partisan project of the Annenberg Public Policy Center, issued a recent report setting the record straight on the nine most recent lies being spread about the new healthcare bill. The nine Latest Lies are:

 

  1. Requires patients to be implanted with microchips. (No, it doesn’t.)
     
  2. Cuts benefits for military families and retirees. (No. The TRICARE program isn’t affected.)
     
  3. Exempts Muslims from the requirement to obtain coverage. (Not specifically. It does have a religious exemption, but that is intended for Old Order Amish.)
     
  4. Allows insurance companies to continue denying coverage to children with preexisting conditions. (Insurance companies have agreed not to exploit a loophole that might have allowed this.)
     
  5. Will require 16,500 armed IRS agents to enforce. (No. Criminal penalties are waived.)
     
  6. Gives President Obama a Nazi-like “private army.” (No. It provides a reserve corps of doctors and other health workers for emergencies.)
     
  7. “Exempts” House and Senate members. (No. Their coverage may not be as good as before, in fact.)
     
  8. Covers erectile-dysfunction drugs for sex offenders. (Just as it was before the new law, those no longer in jail can buy any insurance plan they choose.)
     
  9. Provides federal funding for abortions. (Not directly. But neither side in the abortion debate is happy with the law.)

FactCheck.org has issued over 100 pieces regarding the healthcare bill, and this is just the most recent.

      I reviewed the above points where I have some info:

      #3-Muslim Exemption…not specifially but the jury is not yet our..depends on court interpretation of Sharia Law.

      #5-True not required to enforce..but being added to check up on people and business meeting government requirements..and if you don’t buy the required insurance you could still go to jail for IRS fines.

      #9-Abortian-depends on State …can be covered

      More important is the report that was held back from the Public until the vote:
      DEMOCRATS HID DAMNING HEALTH CARE REPORT FROM PUBLIC UNTIL A MONTH AFTER VOTE

      More hope and change–
      A damning health care report generated by actuaries at the Health and Human Services (HHS) Department was given to HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius more than a week before the health care vote. She hid the report from the public until a month after democrats rammed their nationalized health care bill through Congress.

      The results from the report were troubling. The report released by Medicare and Medicaid actuaries shows that medical costs will skyrocket rising $389 billion 10 years. 14 million will lose their employer-based coverage. Millions of Americans will be left without insurance. And, millions more may be dumped into the already overwhelmed Medicaid system. 4 million American families will be hit with tax penalties under this new law.
