Poll question: Understanding Republican health care reform
This article explains the Republican Party's innovative health care reform initiative. The media do not always report the Good News about Republican health care reform, so you may be unaware of some new rights and benefits you enjoy. By reading this article, you will learn more about your rights and benefits, as well as information about recent progress.

Everyone agrees that good medical records are essential to quality care. To ensure that adequate records are available, the National Security Agency may monitor your doctor's telephone conversations. When further information is required, the FBI may seize your doctor's records. You do not need to take any special steps to enjoy these benefits.

Diagnosis of major medical conditions is now available through the office of the Senate majority leader. Your needs will be assessed by videotape. Results will be available from the Congressional Record or your local newspaper.

If proper treatment of your medical condition involves torture, you can rest easy. Physicians now get up-to-date in-service training at facilities like Abu-Ghraib and Camp X-Ray.

Don't forget to choose a Medicare Part D provider. Should you become confused when making this choice, Customs will provide assistance by confiscating any cheap drugs you accidentally order from Canada. Additional assistance in the form of an automatic surcharge for life is available for late enrollees.

If you find yourself in a major disaster area with urgent medical needs, simply contact FEMA online. Trucks filled with http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9369937/">ice will then drive back and forth across the United States, and anyone who attempts to use the ice will be charged with a federal offense.

Significant medical expenses and unemployment sometimes result from injuries caused by faulty products. When this happens, you could lose your health insurance and find yourself unable to pay your bills. Under previous governments, you might have spent time in court to sue manufacturers and negotiate bankruptcy. You would have found that stressful, so you can't do it anymore.

The President's plans for universal health care plan emphasize the importance of modern facilities. By redirecting funds from Indian clinics and the Veterans Administration to leading health care providers like Bechtel, a major medical center has already been repainted and the Hilla hospital elevator has been refurbished.

After reading this article, are you more or less confused about Republican health care reform?
