Puhleeze. Yes this determination is nothing more than economically driven science, but to blame Obama shows that YOU are a partisan HACK! This panel was appointed by Bush! WAKE UP, your health is being put at risk by a bunch of people charged with lowering the cost of health care.Typical of the right wing. Get your head out of your lymph nodes

Well said, Cassy. If you are going to get breast cancer, the best place in the world to get it is in America. Now bureaucrats and politicians and ruthless medical specialists want to deny women hope. People who think this way have to figuratively be put down. This is why Obamacare must be defeated and never passed: literally, our lives depend on it.

Strangely, such a well scripted “public” outcry was not heard when it was “determined” that prostate exams, including PSA blood tests, and “treatment”,including the less invasive “spikes” approach, for men was deemed “Not worth it”, (by the AMA, CDC, and insurance wonks anyway)

Fortunately, my doctor was ALLOWED to prescribe PSA blood tests to establish my (46 year old at the time)”baseline”, once I made it clear that I pay in full for MY medical service (OK, with a discount for prompt cash payment), and not into a partial payment scheme, for insurance that pays partial
percent of the bill.

Yippee! Cheep “Insurance” for EVERYBODY! (except, not really)
Gee! (no, GE) I wonder how many “old” digital x-ray machines, that take up space and resources for nothing else but womens breasts, will be available in recycling centers for the taking
by “back alley” mammogram technicians and their remote “interpreters”?

Bet there’s a BIG E-bay market for them in Canada.

In fairness, the actual words “Death Panels” are not to be
found in the (four reams +/-)”Public Insurance Alternitive” thesis proposed by the Democrat led Executive, and Legislative, arms of the current “crisis” manipulation team.

How many women will suffer because of this insanity? Where’s NOW? Where’s Hillary? Where has common sense disappeared to?

BTW, ease up on those ‘self-examination’ pics, I’m not as young as I used to be.

This is an perfect example of the harm caused to individual liberty – not to mention the harm done to, well, individuals – when the government has a seat at the table. Just imagine what it will be like when they have the only seat at the table. Death to Death Panels!
