| President Obama want ideas on health care reform  | | | | The President has called for input on what should be in the Health Care Bill. Here is an Idea that I have and would suggest he consider it. I would like to see the Health Insurance be the responsibility the individual. I would propose that everyone be allowed to have a tax deductible, tax free(growth) Medical Savings Account. People could then buy a high deductible (you decide how much out of pocket money you will spend) Health Insurance with an upper limit of say $100,000 limits. This would give the insurance company a limited liability and they could plan for the expenses. They you buy a $10,000,000 catastrophic policy with a $100,000 deductible. This would be very cheep because few would file claims. Allow the person to define what is covered such as a homeowners insurance or car insurance and allow you to purchase across state lines. Why should a non drinking person have to pay for Alcohol Treatment? Why should a woman pay for Hair Transplants for men. Once you have the policy you have it for life, unless you stop paying for it. You would be in control of you health care costs. I feel that this would limit costs to the Insurance Co and provide for cheaper premiums for the consumer and provide the coverage they want. If you want a lower deductible then you would pay for it. I would like to see what others would suggest for Health Care Reform. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

| | In Canada we don't like Insurance! We found long ago, that Insurance Companies cannot be trusted! Perhaps this is why we Have a Federally Funded Health Care Plan that's paid for with a Goods and Service tax. This plan has worked well for Canadians since 1984. Of course not every Canadian is entirely happy, but it covers every citizen equally, no matter what their circumstance. There are no Poor Canadians losing their homes, and livelihoods just because they got hospitalized. Canadians live, on average 80.22 years, while Americans live 78.54 years.

| | It seems that a high government official does not agree and has come to the US to have a Heart Procedure done that is not an option in Canada, even though it is considered routine in the USA. | | | | | | | Dignity Health Dignity is: 60,000 people committed to delivering superior care. dignityhealth.org/ | add comment | | | |

| | I agree that everyone should be responsible for their own insurance. Routine visits should not be covered... they should be out of pocket. The government has no business selling or managing insurance, and they should stay out of it. Remove the regulations preventing interstate insurance sales... that would spur competition and cause the prices to go down. Institute Tort Reform to limit malpractice claims... that would drive own costs as well. I also agree with the Medical Savings Account idea as well as the Catastrophic Insurance coverage. I also think that walk-in clinics would help reduce the load on emergency rooms as well as help lower the cost of seeing a doctor. I also think that medically unnecessary treatments and tests should not be covered. | | | | | | | | | | Cut Down Stomach Fat Fast Incorporate these workout methods to cut down your stomach fat fast.
