The Patriot Post® · Coburn Loses 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.
