It encourages hospitals and doctors to work together and not waste money in treatment, duplication, etc., and it rewards hospitals, doctors and caregivers who save money and waste.

It extends the life of Medicare 8-12 years with the cost savings.

Wow - usually eliminating waste and fraud, lower costs, extending a programs life in the government earns thanks - not unwarranted attacks.

But the hate for this president is so strong, so ugly, that even when he does things conservatives and Republicans have long-supported and wanted, he's crucified for it. Then the right says the left calls him a Messiah. Unbelievable.
Did you read the bill?

It is only like a Harry Potter novel, certainly you could have finished it by now.
You might have a better understanding of how it all works if you actually read it.

Yes. It's been online for over 2 years, and the law for 2. And this particular portion of the bill has dominated media coverage last week, the Sunday morning political shows, newspaper headlines, etc. due to Romney lying about it in 2 ads, and getting caught by the press. Was quite the kerfuffle.

You ever hear of it? Probably not. You probably want "proof" what I just said exists, right?

Please - go familiarize yourself with the news of today: where the National Republican Party platform fully supports removing the right of a woman to have an abortion in the case of rape and incest.

Because you spent multiple posts today arguing that attack on women's rights by the GOP is not happening.
