MEDICAL CARE only influences LIFE EXPECTANCY by 10%. OTHER factors are more. LIFESTYLE for example (smoking, eating ect) 50%....5 Times healthcare. GENETIC DISPOSITION 24%, Environmental factors 16%. So see bubba....Healthcare plays a small role in life expectancy...of course Michael Moore wouldn't point this out in his one sided movie. I would expect a lot of people on here to be easily lead by his misdirections and skewing of stats but not you. You seem to be a guy that usually does a bit of looking around before accepting something at face value. Moore is an idiot with an agenda. If the movie was unbiased and presented unskewed facts it would have more credibility. Factors Influencing Life Expectancy

Having insurance is not always the greatest when you need a referral. If you’re stuck with needing a PCP for a referral you can end up screwed. Often the referral is on the buddy system. I’ve been sent to one guy that did me more harm than good and I’ve been referred to treatment that wasn’t even what I needed. Once I needed a referral and didn’t get one. And if your PCP turns out to be a POS you have to go through the insurance carrier and change it before you can go see another one. I swear that some doctors see an insurance card and hear the kerr-chine, kerr-chine of their cash register. I saw one clown last year that wanted to set me up for a battery of tests including an expensive MRI and put me on a whole list of new drugs while ignoring the minor problem that I went in for. This kind of crap is one reason costs are so high. Oh yeah, I fired the a-hole. A simple change of a BP med that I had grown intolerant of fixed the problem. And yeah, I had told him the drug need changed. He bragged about his “expertise” and told me I was wrong. I wasn’t, but he would have spent thousands of insurance dollars and blamed my pain on arthritis. BTW, arthritis is what doctors blame for your pain when they don’t know what the real problem is.

I hope you get the eye thing resolved. You don't want to lose vision in one of your eyes...makes the slots harder to play probably and we don't want that now do we.
