Seven Falsehoods About Health Care

Does the House bill call for mandatory counseling on how to end seniors’ lives sooner? Absolutely not. Will the government be dictating to doctors how to treat their patients? No. Do the bills propose cutting Medicare benefit levels? No on that one, too.

In this article we offer a run-down of seven falsehoods
we’ve taken on recently, with some additional updating and research thrown in.
