Coburn Loses Doctor
If you like your doctor…
Sen. Tom Coburn, who is retiring at the end of his term this year, signed up for ObamaCare to show that he’s not exempting himself from a law forced on the rest of us. However, the change means that he lost his oncologist while he’s fighting cancer. Coburn remains upbeat, saying, “I’m doing well from a health standpoint, got great docs. Fortunately – even though my new coverage won’t cover my specialist – I’m going to have great care and I have a great prognosis.” That’s because he’s going to pay out of pocket to keep the doctor he likes. Once again, so much for Obama’s promises.
