Health Insurance Report Promising
The report, created by health and human services consulting firm the Lewin Group, was commissioned by The Commonwealth Fund, a private foundation that funds health care research. The study predicts that 48 million Americans will be uninsured in 2007.
The study also reports that proposals from Representative Peter Stark of California and Senator Ron Wyden of Oregon have the potential to cover almost every uninsured American. President Bush's plan would cover 1 in 5 of the uninsured.
Congressional proposals often provide subsidies to low-income individuals and families while also pooling high-risk individuals into large groups in order spread out premium costs.
The government would be able to negotiate lower premiums for larger groups, saving $57-$74 billion per year in administrative costs.
Something needs to be done in order to make health insurance more accessible to American without insurance. Everyone seems to agree that costs go down when everyone signs up.
Health insurance doesn't have to be expensive; affordable health insurance quotes for small business, families and individuals are available.
The best way to get insurance is to get a quote so you can plan your health care budget.
