So the basic thing is that it forces people who can afford insurance to buy it and it expands medicaid to those currently not covered but also can't afford insurance.
So the question.
Doctors are complaining because medicaid doesn't reimburse nearly as much as the private sector and now they will have many more medicaid patients to treat.
but isn't having these patients on medicaid, reimbursing a little bit better than they not being on anything and the doctors not getting paid at all, which would happen if they were poor and uninsured?
