These days the uninsured pay more for health care-and acquire less-than those with insurance. But when the uninsured can not pay, health care providers adjust those costs to people who can pay-those who have insurance coverage. This leads to higher prices for those who buy their insurance on the market, as well as personnel who get insurance policies for themselves and their families through their jobs. The need for affordable healthcare alternatives has never been greater.
Access to affordable healthcare in the United States has been an entitlement, subject to a seemingly arbitrary matrix of factors. Government insurance programs are available for the elderly, permanently disabled, those that have failing kidneys, and impoverished and children from low-income people. Yet, how poor one must be to be considered for such programs varies from state to state and from year to year. Employees at most large firms and many small ones can take advantage of group insurance plans negotiated by their employers. Although millions of people who work with low-paying service, retail and also contracting jobs have got to seek individual insurance plans, which may be unaffordable and also unavailable because of their medical histories. Others get insurance with deductibles so high or insurance limits so reduced that one bad accident or illness could actually bankrupt them. The need for affordable healthcare alternatives has never been greater.
