Voting Question: Universal Health Care?
Would this work….if everyone in the medical profession were placed in a “Health Service Corps” and were given ranks and rates like in the military. If they got paid the same as military medical officers and enlisted do. I think it would do away with all the medical insurance companies and HMO’s. (which would save everyone money). Sure a doctor would make enuff money to drive Lincolns and Caddies but maybe not Bugatti’s or Lamborghini’s. Instead of people and businesses paying for medical insurance and HMO’s we could take say 3-4% of a persons pay and it would go into the medical Health Service Corps accounts…..none would be taken for HMO’s or insurance companies (and their over paid CEO’s)…..
Might it work ?
Resolved Question: The government can’t control healthcare right?
I don’t get it. All these commercials about healthcare not being run by government. Um, has anybody taken a look at their insurance policy lately. No, flip to the “exclusions” list in your handbook (if you didn’t get one like most insurances “forget” to give you go online and look it up).
The insurance companies are already telling you what you can and cannot do! For instance as a employee of the TriWest Healthcare Alliace (the management company for the Tricare benefit in the west region), the exclusions list included stuff like weight loss and reduction, genetic testing, intelligence testing, marital therapy or couples counseling, private hospital rooms, and I could continue but take a look at it for yourself in the link below.
The point is, the insurance companies already tell us what we can and cannot do and they refuse to pay for treatments if you don’t see certain doctors (if you are on a HMO) and or treatments (regardless PPO or HMO).
Alaska Natives have a universal healthcare system. If you are Alaska Native, and I am an Alaska resident, you can go to the hospital and clinics for free. ALL CARE FREE. Their specific hospital is the most state of the art. No its not long wait lines and ridiculous treatments. These people see the docs when they want as many times they want, dental and any other treatments they want. Despite what you may think their population is vastly less then the other populations here which is why they only NEED one hospital in Anchorage., but they have hospitals all over Alaska! Their treatment is superior and people need to know that universal healthcare could and would work just as well!

Taylor- nobody has proof that Bush didn’t cheat in the elections to his 2nd term. But like the rest of us, get over it! He is president, your answer was stupid and so are you! Ooooh, that felt good!
Slew- I am Nationally certified in ICD-9 coding, CPT coding, Medical Insurance and Billing. Some of the things you said were flat wrong. If you even bothered to look at the link, you would have seen abortions on the list of exclusions! Not only that, but please tell me an insurance that has paid for a patient who did not need a hotel room for the procedure. It is far and few in between, but occasionally the insurance company, after many pre-auth submits, that they will send a patient to a location where a specialist is because that specialist is not available where they live. This rarely, rarely happens! Insurance collect money and try to save money by denying every little procedure that they possibly can. If insurances were as free with their money as you claim, we wouldn’t have a problem!
Resolved Question: Can someone explain insurance types and recommend one?
My husband’s company provides insurance, but we didn’t know that a spouse has to be added within 30 days of getting married and a child has to be added within 30 days of being born. After that there is NO other open enrollment period or chance to add us on.
I am looking to get some insurance and I really don’t know what type we need. What is the difference in a HMO and PPO? Someone told me Florida has a state insurance now, does anyone know about this? Do you have any suggestions of a company to try that will be affordable?
We did not know that me and our son had to be added within 30 days or we would have done it. At the time we needed the extra money from his pay checks so we were planning on adding us later, but then we found out it was too late.
Can someone link me to or quickly explain here the major bullet point details about the so-called “socialized health care plan” people are getting up in arms about? I ran into a couple discussions about it the last couple days, but wasn’t sure about what the plan actually entails, so I couldn’t properly address what was being said.
