“The Legislature has the absolute right to do whatever it wants with that money,” Rendell said. “We created the MCare fund and we can end it.”
Diverting special assessments to cover budget shortfalls due to fiscal irresponsibility is just one reason folks no longer trust politicians. We are seeing this everywhere. Same issue in Wisconsin.
Keep a firm grip on your pocket books or you will find Fed, State and Local government pickpockets have robbed you blind.
now you wonder if the the doctors will now stay in the penn, will be the true story. will they be wondering if a malpractice suit comes, will there truly be money there to pay? couple of states have done this trying to move money into a short-funded budget. and everytime that i have read, the law has overturned the use of that money to fund elsewhere in the budget. this only shows that the gov’t does not know how to make a properly funded budget with money in hand. they are giving more money away and not getting enough in return. so where is the money going to?
As an insurance broker i can tell you this whole Mcare Assessment is a scam. My doctors pay more for the assessment than they do for their priamry insurance. If a doctor carries the required 1/3 they should have the option to opt out of Mcare. Gov Rendell talks about abatements what a joke. The doctors received credits in 2002 Then had to pay them back only to receive the same 2002 credits again last year. PA should not be able to mix the Mcare funds to plug holds. Just another policital scam.
Are the state’s finances really so bad that the government would try to raid the fund set up to pay for victims of medical malpractice?! If they are that desperate, maybe they ought to start by raiding the governor’s and legislature’s pension plans.
