Death Panels Back? NY Times says it is.....

See more pics here

Several Democratic members of Congress, led by Representative Earl Blumenauer of Oregon and Senator John D. Rockefeller IV of West Virginia, had urged the administration to cover end-of-life planning as a service offered under the Medicare wellness benefit. A national organization of hospice care providers made the same recommendation.

Democrats dropped it from legislation to overhaul the health care system. But the Obama administration will achieve the same goal by regulation, starting Jan. 1. 
Under the new policy, outlined in a Medicare regulation, the government will pay doctors who advise patients on options for end-of-life care, which may include advance directives to forgo aggressive life-sustaining treatment.

‘Death Panels’ Measure Survives in House Health Care Bill

No "Death Panels" for Grandma, but no vaccine either

This is from Pharmacist.com

SEE WHO IS MISSING???

The CDC, a department of the Federal Government, doesn't have Grandma on the list. Not there, go ahead , check it yourself.

There are no "death panels" in Obamacare.........

But there are no vaccines for Grandma either. If you are 65 or older, you are on your own. Tough luck.

CDC recommends that the following groups receive the novel H1N1 influenza vaccine (in no priority order):

• Pregnant women because they are at higher risk of complications and can potentially provide protection to infants who cannot be vaccinated.
• Household contacts and caregivers for children younger than 6 months of age because younger infants are at higher risk of influenza-related complications and cannot be vaccinated. Vaccination of those in close contact with infants less than 6 months of age might help protect infants by “cocooning” them from the virus.
• Health care and emergency medical services personnel because infections among health care workers have been reported, and this can be a potential source of infection for vulnerable patients. Also, increased absenteeism in this population could reduce health care system capacity.
• All individuals aged 6 months through 24 years.
• Children from 6 months through 18 years of age because many cases of novel H1N1 influenza have arisen in children and they are in close contact with one another in school and day care settings, which increases the likelihood of disease spread.
• Young adults 19 through 24 years of age because many cases of novel H1N1 influenza have occurred in these healthy young adults and they often live, work, and study in close proximity and are frequently a mobile population.
• Individuals aged 25 through 64 years who have health conditions associated with higher risk of medical complications from influenza.
