HOW OBAMACARE WORKS?

Bubba had shingles. 

Those of us who spend much time in a doctor's office should appreciate this! Doesn't it seem more and more that physicians are running their practices like an assembly line?  Well, here's what happened to Bubba:

Bubba walked into a doctor's office and the receptionist asked him what he had. Bubba said: 'Shingles.' So she wrote down his name, address, medical insurance number and told him to have a seat.

Fifteen minutes later a nurse's aide came out and asked Bubba what he had.  Bubba said, 'Shingles.' So, she wrote down his height, weight, a complete medical history and told Bubba to wait in the examining room.

A half hour later a nurse came in and asked Bubba what he had. Bubba said, 'Shingles.' This nurse took Bubba's blood pressure, drew blood for that test, did an electrocardiogram on him, then told Bubba to take off all his clothes and wait there for the doctor.

An hour later the doctor came in and found Bubba sitting patiently in the nude. The good doctor asked Bubba what he had?  Bubba said, 'Shingles.'

The doctor asked, 'Where do you have them?'

Bubba said, 'Outside, on the truck. Where do you want me to unload 'em?'
