Tens of Thousands of union workers and community activists to be hired for Obamacare

Tens of thousands of health care professionals, union workers and community activists hired as "navigators" to help Americans choose Obamacare options starting Oct. 1 could earn $20 an hour or more, according to new regulations issued Wednesday.

The 63-page rule covering navigators, drawn up by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, also said the government will provide free translators for those not fluent in English -- no matter what their native language is.
"The proposed requirements would also include that such entities and individuals provide consumers with information and assistance in the consumer's preferred language, at no cost to the consumer, which would include oral interpretation of non-English languages and the translation of written documents in non-English languages when necessary to ensure meaningful access," said the regulations.

The rules also addressed conflict of interest and other potential issues that navigators could face as the public's first stop on the Obamacare trail.

It is still not clear how many navigators will be required. California, however, provides a hint. It wants 21,000.

That could be an expensive proposition. The proposed rules, now open for public comment, suggest an estimated pay of $20-$48 an hour.

What we're going to have are leftist activists and community organizers running healthcare. They are all idiots and I don't want any of them anywhere near me or my medical records.

AKA a govt program where you get others to either pay for you or pay a higher share than you...

Nah... I will stick with freedom and buying it your fucking self in a system where competition derives the price... we could have fixed the issues with access to health insurance by allowing more competition, allowing more groups to negotiate group rates, etc... but no.. the nanny state GIMME GIMME crowd wanted bu mommy government to kiss their boo boos

A single payer system run by community organizers at significant taxpayer losses would certainly fit the socialist dream..........

For the common good comrades !!!!

We should have at least had an in-depth national discussion on this, which may have ultimately spawned workable hybrids of those two systems.

Instead the Dems crammed through this hideous beast, laden with new fees and bureaucracies, and woefully short of cost-cutting measures. And it STILL won't cover everyone. Holy crap. Doing SOMETHING isn't always better than doing nothing. The Dems obviously thought they had to shove something, anything, through fast while they had political advantage, so they were willing to run with this steaming pile of shit.

This disaster is a shining example of how fucked up our political system is on BOTH ends.

It beats borrowing $16 trillion dollars to do little, and it damn certain didn't give anybody except more bureaucrats more jobs..
