Americans Want Health Plans Reformed

A recent survey shows that 91% of Americans think that health insurance reform is needed, but there isn't agreement about how much should change.

In the online poll, according to the Cherry Creek News, 46% believe that major reform is needed, while another 46% think minor change is required.

Americans are split as to whether a private or public health care system is the answer. 25% want a private health insurance system where individuals or employers are responsible for health insurance, and 24% want a publicly funded universal health plan where the government provides health services for all citizens.

Over half the people polled, 56%, want state laws that make health coverage mandatory, while 33% are against such regulations. Massachusetts and California health insurance are currently mandated.

Even though a majority of people think that health care reform is needed, opinions differ as to how change should be implemented. 55% of respondents gave the current U.S. health insurance system a negative rating; clearly change is needed.

If you're an individual, family, or small business interested in getting affordable health insurance quotes, there are many plans to choose from. Even though change in the system is needed, it's always a good idea to be covered. Hopefully, with more people enrolling, the overall price for everyone will decrease.
