How many times have we heard the president’s wild claim that we can “keep our healthcare plan if we like it”? Well, if that were true we’d also be able to keep our doctor, right? Hasn’t the president said that we won’t have to lose our favorite doctor with “his” healthcare policies?

So, how easy will it be to keep your doctor and access his services under the Baucus bill now under consideration in the Senate?

The Senate Joint Economic Committee recently addressed this question by creating a nice visual representation of how easy it will be to access your doctor through Obamacare. The JEC crated an interesting flowchart so that we can follow the steps that the Baucus bill will impose on us all as we try to access the care we usually get by just going to our doctors and asking for it.
Unfortunately, if you like your doctor, Obamacare will make it so much harder to deal with him in the future.

Here is a small snippet of the chart:
