Why we need a public option!

Tell us what you think the public option is?

define what it does please?
Government defined care, they will tell you what is covered and what is not. Age will play a huge roll. We pay taxes for the benefit. The benofit will lead to greater defiocits because politicans will sell you a bill of goods and you will rejoice.

NOPE, You are wrong.

Why dont you KNOW the Public Option is an insurance group that is profit free and concerned only with being an insurancer of people who can not afford the Private companies who rake in huge profits like 100% higher in a mere two years.


Its health insurance without a profit margin which allows it to insure people at lower rates.

All things I stated still apply, you just want the government picking up the tab, causing us to go into further debt. All the countries that have this universal health care ration treatment, a fact you can not deny.

Is a 3-4% profit margin "huge?"
 
This is the "means test public option" we now have:
A kid gets sick from a low income WORKING family, no doctor will see them and they show up at the emergency room of the local hospital.
Total bill for this visit= $1700+ for time, resources and the ER doctor to see this kid with a bad cold.
Multiply that by millions.
And folks just love this current system we have.

All one has to do is review how that came about.

Some one decided ER visits should be covered close to one hundred percent. It became cost effective for familys to skip the doctor visit and go straight to the ER.

End of story. Another decision made without thought of consequence.

The mandatory (as in, participating states have to cover it) EPSDT Medicaid benefit for children is not allowed to institute cost-sharing and it covers a range of screening, diagnosis, and treatment services for children.

But if it's a Medicaid benefit, or any other benefit for that matter, someone other than the beneficiary pays for it nonetheless.

A shell game is a shell game.

This guy thinks he can lie and if he throws around enough acronyms and get away with it.

No IDIOT, its an insurance group that charges premiums and deductables and makes no profit which makes the product cheaper.

You have bought into the right wing hack lies about what it is.

It only shifts costs to the private pay mechanism for health care.

Sort of and you are on to it but it is not the end of story. The family skipped the docto because they do not have the $180 for a 2 minute doctor visit.
One hastoacknowledge that the fact that American health, or diesease, care has gone from 4% of GNP in 1960 to close to 20% now as the problem.
We DEMAND too much health care. Does your car insurance pay for oil changes, homeowners for the house to be painted and new carpet?
Group health care as a benefit is the worst possible way to structure a HEALTH care system.
Great for all in the medical field and the insurance companies but very bad for the HEALTH of a country as evidenced by how unhealthy we are. Great for disease care as that pays out 60% of all group health care dollars for 4% of the population.
I opposed the Obama plan as all that is is more of the same. We need a public option, public health clinics and the ability to get reading glases fitted with frames without having a doctor sign off on it. Nurses need to be able to do their job without a doctor sining off on it. ON and on and on.
The current system is fucked. How can we operate this in 30 years when health care costs consume 35-40% of GNP?
Deny that and we get no where as that is what is happening. Blank check group health insurance "care" must go for most because taxpayers can not afford it and it does not work.

We "demand" too much health care? Someone should be in charge of seeing to it we have less health care?

Think for a moment. Free universal PREVENTATIVE healthcare. Provided to each American citizen as a birthright. Preventative healthcare includes education, innoculations, and physical examinations including lab tests for ealy detection of chronic expensive disease.
In the long-term this will save money, save lives and reduce human misery.

Of course a public option, providing health insurance for emergency room visits for accident and injury and serious onset of disease, hospital care and treatment, including major medical, is the next step. For this a fee for service (Co-Pay) as well as an annual premium can be expected.
Such premiums might be paid by an employer, allowing business to provide a benefit without breaking their bank.

Does "free" mean someone else pays for it?

Like your obscene public employee pension?
