Why the lobbyst for Pharmaceutical and the Health insurance companies are not speaking against the HC reform?

I have a feeling that they already made a deal with the obama administration to exclude the Public option for the health care reform bill.............do u feel the same way?
--------------------
Why else would they be keeping quiet!! Corruption is rampant in the White House!

Are specific prescriptions listed on health insurance bills?

Just out of curiosity, I am on my mom's insurance plan - if I fill a prescription on her insurance, would it be listed on a bill or report for her or something?
--------------------
Well, the insurance company won't send out an "explanation of benefits". But if she requests a copy of all prescriptions filled for tax purposes at the end of the year, it will be on that list. You can always fill that prescription and pay cash, without using insurance.

What kind of health insurance benefits does congress give itself?

Do they pay premiums? Do they keep it when they leave or get cobra like the peasants?
--------------------
The congress has the best of the best of health insurance, all purchased at taxpayer expense. They keep it, fully paid when they leave (if they ever do). The travesty that they want to force upon the taxpayer will only succeed in breaking our nation. It will also be unconstitutional as they will have directly gone against the will of their constituents. In 1994, Sen Jay Rockefeller said, "'We're going to pass health reform whether the American people like it or not,'" This is NOT the attitude of a representative but the attitude of a dictator. The Senators and House representatives were elected to _represent_ the citizens of the U.S.A., NOT to oversee them.

Does your state already have a public health insurance option for low income folks like mine does?

We have Minncare for those up north here in Minnesota so I don't see why we need the feds involved in our insurance.
--------------------
Yes. It's not health care they are really talking about. The Democrats are hellbent on forcing us into a plan that they voted to exempt themselves from, because it sucks and they know it. This is nothing more than a massive power grab. They are nationalizing a full 16% of the American economy and instituting massive tax increases, while giving a private company (that happened to back the Obama campaign with massive funding and that also controls numerous left wing organizations and media outlets that extol the virtues of Obama and his regime), GE unprecedented control over your private and personal health records, banking records (with the authority to confiscate funds from your bank accounts), income and tax records, and much more that is clearly invasive yet is to be "defined and/or implemented at some undefined point in the future". So they give themselves the authority to confiscate whatever they want, whenever they want, from any of us, at their discretion while they give themselves top notch truly FREE healthcare, because WE pay for it 100% and they pay nothing. Talk about the goose laying the golden egg...

Where will unemployed get money to buy health insurance?

The sweeping legislation, affecting virtually every American and impacting one-sixth of the U.S. economy, would extend coverage to an estimated 32 million uninsured. How are the uninsured going to be insured? Does the government pay? If so, how does it reduce the deficit? Big business will have to provide insurance or be taxed. The stock market will probably go down as a result. There are many other concerns, but we can start with these.

If a person is born with a pre-existing condition, how does the person get health insurance?

Can they get insurance through the private market, or are all pre-existing conditions covered through Medicare or Medicaid or (S)CHIP regardless?
--------------------
If the parents have coverage then the baby will be added to that plan provided the parents add the baby to the plan. They usually have 30 days from the time of birth. If they forget then they're out of luck. This is also part of the reason why pregnant folks can't get coverage. Not only do the insurance companies not want to pay for the birth -- they also want to avoid taking the risk that the baby is a premie or otherwise going to be expensive. All reasons why you never want to be without.

Does anyone know where I can get Health Insurance that covers pre-existing conditions?

I need insurance for my son who has asthma. We live in Arkansas. Any suggestions? My husband and I make too much money to be eligible for Medicaid (AR Kids).
--------------------
You do not want to use a discount card or some other scam that is posing as a real health insurance plan. Not all health insurance companies handle asthma the same way so be sure and speak with an independent Arkansas health insurance agent that can work with many different companies. The best bet is to compare quotes from at least 5 different companies and choose the one that will best meet your needs. Asthma is not necessarily a "guaranteed declineable" type of pre-existing condition like cancer, heart disease or some of the more serious things. Here is some more information on pre-existing condition health insurance plans and also some information specifically on Arkansas health insurance options:

How much does health insurance cost you per year?

If you buy your own, that is. And is it good?
--------------------
If you ask me personally I would say that I am getting a pretty fantastic deal. I pay 6$ a month for me and I am pregnant. I guess that would mean I am below the average but I suggest you look around if you are trying to get cheap insurance, there are great deals out there nowadays

Why do most health insurance plans only offer coverage to full time college students?

Is there some kind of omen that makes you 1000000x times more prone to accidents and illnesses if you take 11 hours instead of 12?

How many people have actually died due to not having health insurance?

Does anyone have a statistic? I believe that I need clarification as to how many people have died due to not being insured. Thanks!
--------------------
That would be impossible to tell. I am sure that if some one died who did not have health Insurance they just did not seek help. Free care is there for the taking. Just walk into any hospital with an emergency, they have to take care of you, it is the law. so I say if anyone died it was their own fault.

Can my Health Insurance Provider through my employer drop my coverage if I am out of work for surgery?

I was just told today that if I am out of work for more than 30 days for the removal of a brain tumor that my company's insurance provider will drop my coverage. This does not sound right to me as I have paid for this so called insurance for the 2 years I have been employed and I am only going to be out of work because I was recently diagnosed with this tumor.
--------------------
If you live in the US. I would contact L&I. We have protection as an employee! We have rights. It's called FMLA! Family Medical Leave Act! Based on the rules you have 12 weeks (not getting paid) to take for your health care. And upon return to your job they are liable to give you your job back or one that is equivalent to the one you had before your leave! You can also check on line through Google.com! Just put in FMLA in the search bar!

For Federal govm't employees, what % of their annual health insurance premiums are paid by the government?

While employed, Federal employees appear to have several choices of health care plans and they pay a portion of the annual premiums. It may differ from plan to plan, but on average, how much of the annual premium is paid for by the Federal government rather than the employee?
--------------------
I am retired now, but when I worked for them they paid 100%.

My Health Insurance is governed by another state?

My health insurance has recently spiked so I'm getting a new plan.... But the new plan I found online, is called Golden Rule by UnitedHealthCareOne...and it is governed by Illinois and not my state Florida...however, when you go to the site you have to first pick ur state and zip before u can even get a quote....So are there any differences between states on health insurance policies? Why would they even accept me as a customer if the policies would be different state by state?

Under Obamacare, is it true that the poor get free health insurance?

Do the people who little to no income get 100% of their health care covered by government subsidies?
--------------------
Most of them already do. So you should be able to say yes in most states. Obamacare doesn't cover everyone, just almost everyone.

If you receive SSI Disabilty can you stay on your spouse's health insurance?

If you are awarded disability do you have to get on Medicare/Medicaid or can you stay on your spouse's insurance through their employer? I am afraid of not being able to see my regular doctor if I have to get on Medicaid because so few doctors accept it. Anybody familiar with this?? Thanks in advance!
--------------------
Yes, you can stay on your spouse's insurance. You can't get on Medicare until you've been on SSDI for 24 months. At that time you want to look into Medicare; in many cases Medicare with an Advantage plan is the better option. You can also get Medicaid and keep your current insurance. Your insurance would be primary and Medicaid would be secondary and could possibly pick up some of the co-pays.

Can a health insurance company make a reimbursement check out to your under age child?

Aetna sent me a reimbursement check made out in the name of my six-year-old child. Is that a Federal law? How can they make a check out to an under aged child that is on my policy?
--------------------
doesnt matter, they are your minor child, you can sign their name and deposit it.
