OBAMACARE: Preventive Care saves money. Another Obamacare success.

http://www.ifyouonlynews.com/politics/another-obamacare-success-spells-doom-for-republican-talking-points/

The drop in preventable illnesses in hospitals comes on top of news from last month regarding a Gallup poll which revealed most people are more than happy with healthcare plans from the exchange, as I reported then:
74 percent of Americans insured through the exchanges rate their quality of healthcare as ‘good’ or ‘excellent. 71 percent said the same thing about the coverage itself. A full three quarters are satisfied with the cost, and furthermore, 68 percent plan to renew the same policy, with another seven percent planning to get a new policy through the exchanges.
Of course, the reality of healthcare reform will not probably be accepted for a long time to come. While there are political points to be gained by muddying the waters, conservatives will continue to attack, manipulate, and outright lie in order to pander to constituents that bought their previous lies.
Many of the real issues with Obamacare come from over-complication. It would be simpler, and far cheaper as a nation, to cut out the insurance middlemen and concentrate on healing people. Healthcare is a human right.
