subject: Is This New Health Care Plan Really The Best For Americans? [print this page] We all, in recent months, have heard all the pros and cons of the health care reform debate, but as expected, most people are still confused about what to expect. While it is very clear that the U.S. health care system is in dire need of change, reform is hardly the best descriptive word, unless you are referring to who is gonna pay and who will be covered.
Who among us wouldn't welcome a chance at being insured, if we are the victim of poverty, unemployment, or previous health issues. The plan is being explained as a way of insuring the un-insurable, due to a pre-existing condition or just simply can't afford it because of financial woes. A way for everyone to have health insurance.
This new plan will ensure that everyone gets health insurance. No one will be denied. No pre-existing conditions or life threatening illnesses will disqualify anyone meaning everyone will be covered. Everyone will be eligible for coverage, from every walk and position within the U.S.
As great as this idea is for everyone to have health insurance, there are very real concerns raised about this new plan. Added everyone to the health care system will have a huge impact on the cost of such a system, especially those with health issues of a serious nature and anyone who doesn't follow a regular check up schedule. This new proposed plan is based on the balancing out theory between those who have no insurance and are less than healthy and the healthy insured and employed individuals. The concerns center around the effectiveness and extra cost associated with such a new health care plan.
No matter how you look at it The Health Care Reform is really just a Nationalized Health Plan and with that comes its own set of problems. Many countries have been experiencing too much of an overload by this type of government health care program causing long waits to see specialists and creating a strong demand on the number of physicians that they have available. While the U.S. is one of the most advanced nations as far as health care is concerned it seems that they will be one of the last countries to move to a nationalized health care system. As other countries are moving away from this system due to its inefficiencies the United States is moving towards it. How could one of the most advanced nations be taking this sort of backward step?
