I don't expect any congress or Obama to go for it since in 2008 lawyers donated $300 million to Dems/Obama!

But when the get around to scrapping Obamacare this would definitely costs the REST of us nothing and coverage would be available at hospitals for the "uninsured" to be registered (after appropriate MEANS testing!!!) as a policy holder. Then all claims would be submitted
to Uninsured Health Insurance Co.© and hospitals under AUDIT supervision prevented from padding and passing on to Medicare!
As a result Medicare costs decrease as well as the defensive medicine costs!

WASTED wasted money... and I KNOW how much waste there is in these hospitals/Medicare transactions.
If you'd like to know what your largest hospital in your city overcharges Medicare tell me the name of your city or make up a city I don't care but it will amaze you how much "Vigorish" is added to the claims!

Kind of funny you bring up this point guess I was being brainwashed into thinking E.R. vists by regular folks and illegals was the main culprit. I forgot about this.... thanks.

there was no healthcare crisis in the USA. No one was being denied treatment--even illegals were getting free medical care.

Obamacare created a problem where there was none.

"There was no healthcare crisis in the USA."
Have you been off visiting Mars?
Healthcare cost rose 131% 1999-2009, incomes increased 38%. But there was no healthcare crisis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First everyone should agree with these experts, i.e. physicians that send the claims to insurance companies and Medicare.
Anyone with any common sense should recognize that if these physicians are telling us they are requesting duplicate tests, referring to
specialists ALL BECAUSE they are afraid of lawsuits that should be believed. These physicians said and I'm not making this up:
..doctors all contend they spend 34% of the national $2.5 trillion in duplicate tests,referrals to specialists, etc.
ALL out of fear of lawsuits! That's $850 billion .. a YEAR!
Findings from this survey include the following:

• Physicians estimate the cost of defensive medicine in US at $650 to $850 billion per year. This is 26 to 34% of all US healthcare costs.
• Up to 92% of US physicians practice defensive medicine.
• 76% of physicians report that defensive medicine decreases patient access to healthcare.
• 53% of physicians report delaying new techniques, procedures, and treatments due to fear of lawsuits.
• Patients most affected by defensive medicine include those visiting emergency rooms and those requiring surgery.
• Women are most affected by defensive medicine.
• Emergency medicine, primary care, and OB/GYN physicians are most likely to practice defensive medicine.
• 79 to 83% of surgeons and OB/GYNs have been named in lawsuits.

So when Obamacare taxed tanning salons for causing cancer, it should be common sense then to tax lawyers for causing the $850 billion a year in defensive medicine.
10% of the $200 billion lawyers make generates $20 billion.

Now when the fact there are less then 4 million people that truly want, NEED and are eligible for insurance should be they can be covered by the $20 billion tax!

Further when these uninsured go to hospitals for care they are registered with and the claims sent to the Uninsured Health Insurance Co©.
As a result the hospitals will be audited to make sure claims submitted to Medicare/insurance companies are marked up as some Medicares have been 6,000%!!!

With the tax declining as the $850 billion declines and with the hospitals no longer marking up @ 6,000% the $850 billion PLUS wasted claims will be reduced!
I project easily $200 to $400 billion a year in cost reductions due to reduce defensive medicine/hospitals padding and passing!

As a result ALL Americans that are eligible that want insurance are covered! Problem solved without destroying the rest of the 98% of us health care!

Just curious here. Are you aware that this is income for those lawyers and it is already taxed?

Just as the tanning salons are taxed under Obamacare YES! Surcharge tax!

Why are you so concerned about these millionaire lawyers that all of my links show are the generators of fear of lawsuits which is why physicians practice "defensive medicine"!
