Administrators of health care coverage
always looks for a way out and It has always been that way and will always
be that way.

Now they will be searching, looking and implementing new ways to
deny coverage!

Hmmm, seems like folks are getting more and more disgusted with the current administration; I wonder why?

This house bill is plain and simply, UNCONSTITUTIONAL. The government can not make me buy something or force me to pay for healthcare for someone else.

Thirty-eight percent now say they would advise their member of Congress to vote against a new healthcare bill this year, while 29% would advise their member to vote for it, and about a third have no opinion.

There is clearly no mandate for this government take over of 1/6 of our economy. Here is a Gallup poll that I found that shows 54% of the people don’t support the take over.

I am aware of how much an MRI costs, I’m also aware that hospitals charge those who do not have insurance a higher dollar amount than those who do, since most insurance companies negotiate a lower price. Logic dictates if everyone had insurance, they would qualify for the lower prices, which some could still argue for certain procedures are higher than they should be.

It’s also not agreed upon that the premiums are paid out by that percentage as well as what this health care plan will do.

According to the Senate analysis, the six largest public insurance companies’ average ratio in 2009 was 74 percent for individuals; 80 percent for small companies with fewer than 50 employees, and 84 percent for large businesses.

America’s Health Insurance Plans (AHIP), the industry association, disputed the finding.

“Government data show that 87 cents of every premium dollar go directly to pay for medical care,” AHIP spokesman Robert Zirkelbach said in an email statement.

The house bill will continue to shield consumers of healthcare services from the true costs of health care. Who among you know how much it costs for an MRI, EKG, Office Visit, heart surgery, etc.? You’ve never cared about the cost have you? That’s the problem.

Additionally, more than 50% of medical claims are a result of bad personal choices – eating too much, no exercise, smoking, drinking too much, sedintary lifestyle.

The government cannot and will not inject any level of personal responsibility into this solution. Their bill will force people into some level of insurance while doing nothing to educate them on responsible utilization.

Sherrod Brown and his type want to cap private insurance premiums while removing limitiations on claims and enrollment. When your personal expenses rise dramatically and your income remains flat, what happens to your financial situation? You go belly up! The same would happen to insurance companies.

As I stated above, 87% of the private insurance costs go directly to paying for patient’s medical service claims. Adding people to the insured ranks while capping premiums and adding benefits will not do anything reduce the costs of services. The house bill completely misses the target, which leads me to believe that they are not really aiming for a solution. They are building a dependency on the Democrat party, plain and simple.
