The appeal process is a two year wait. Just think about that democrats, a two year wait.

IMO....This is exactly what hillary clinton will bring to the table a single payer system that would exclude the rich and the famous.

The bigger picture, however, is this is what "single payer" would look like, most likely at its best.  2 year waits for an appeal process.  As McDermott notes, that's a long time for a system designed to care for the elderly.  Some may not survive the process and many are on fixed incomes.  That and the fact that providers shouldn't have to wait that long for resolution either.  If it were a private insurance entity taking this time, they'd likely not be in business long as customers would endeavor to find a provider which was much more efficient in processing appeals.  That's just a few of the benefits provided by incentive, competition and a profit motive.  Government bureaucracies, of course, aren't motivated by any of those factors.  And this is the result.

Make no mistake, there are a large contingent of Democrats who would love to move us to a single payer system.  Fair warning – this is a mild example of what the party which can't even build a functioning website in 2014 would inflict on the citizens of this country.
