Oh trust me - I have dealt with every aspect of not having insurance or having pre-existing conditions!! My first born spent most of her 6 years of life in the hospital fighting for her life and we had no insurance. Years later, I was diagnosed with cancer and fought for every single treatment including chemo/radiation multiple surgeries, transfusions etc., without private insurance.. my husband sustained a fracture of his spine at work just last November so YES we are intimately familiar with WC and other insurance or lack there of .. issues.

My words were only to say that it will be more difficult to find doctors willing to treat those who are on the new plan. I also stated how much more difficult it will be to get an appointment because wait lists will be high. I was not saying anything against or for this new healthcare policy just making comments as to future difficulties such programs can cause. If I offended you or anyone else that was not my intention at all.. I am just as angry at our system (WC/Medicaid/Medicare) as the next person!!

Lastly, I pointed out that it is not the fault of the doctors that WC makes people jump through endless hoops trying to get treatment rightfully deserved - it is WC state laws that doctors are required to follow.
