We pay property tax, income tax, sales tax, state tax, business tax, capital gains tax, tax on investments, tax on interest...I know I've missed some.
--------------------
Exactly and paying more taxes for your neighbor is socialistic. Programs for the masses do not work. There are affordable health care plans and many choices for us to make on our own. We do not need the government making our decisions for us. We don't need socilaism. Wealth grows through capitalism, the standard of living improves. If history tells us anything, even in the early years of the revolution, workers were becoming better off. Prices were falling, incomes rising, health and sanitation improving, diets became more varied, and working conditions were constantly improving The new wealth generated by capitalism dramatically lengthened lifespans and decreased child mortality rates. The new jobs created in industry paid more than most people could make in agriculture. Housing conditions improved. The new heroes of society came from the middle class as business owners and industrialists displaced the nobility and gentry in cultural hierarchy.

Do you have good advice on fighting/overturning a health insurance claim that has been turned down?
My wife and I were turned down for coverage following a procedure that was not considered to be done for a life-saving reason. However, not doing the procedure WOULD have had major implications resulting in a more invasive surgery with subsequent ones to follow. This description is somewhat vague, but it is also personal. Thank you.
--------------------
Have the doctor write a letter. This has greatly helped me in the past. If this fails, you can always contact the Insurance Commissioner...they REALLY hate to hear from them and it usually gets resolved.

Read the article, people. Christian Science practitioners want their services to be included in the definition of health care. Ridiculous. They say they support medical care the way Jesus practiced it. I don't recall Jesus charging for his services.

Are those of you who have employer paid health insurance willing to pay?
$2000 to $3000 more a year in income rax so those people without health insurance can get a tax break?
--------------------
Actually I think you misinterpreted the plan. Those with employer provided insurance or those who are able to provide for their own insurance needs would see a tax break. The problem with his plan as I see it is that it would do nothing to help the poor who are uninsured. Example: With my contributions and my employers the total comes to about 6000 a year for my family. This 6000 would become taxable income under the President's plan, but I would get a 15,000 dollar tax break. So basically I would be able to write off an additional 9000 in income from my yearly gross. Thus I would get a tax break. Those people who have employer sponsored health plans would fair well so long as the total amount of the contributions is below 15,000 for a family or 7,500 for an individual. However, people who do not have sponsored plans and are already living either at or beyond their means will not be able to add additional costs for self insurance simply with the goal of getting a larger tax return at the end of the year. Therefore there is no real benefit to the poor.

I paid premiums on my health insurance, this amount is in my box 12a, but they coded it as W. Is this right?
The way that I understand it, box 12a with a code of W is for a health savings plan, so this would not be the right code for health insurance premiums that were paid in. Am I correct and does anyone know what code the health insurance premiums should be?
--------------------
health insurance premiums are usually reported in box 14 for information. 12A coded W is for your health savings, this would be a high deductible plan. If you receive a 100SA for a distribution from this plan,you are required to use it for medical expenses or it will become taxable.

You can still get Medicare hospital insurance (Part A) by paying a monthly premium if you are a citizen or a lawfully admitted alien who has lived in the U.S. for at least five years. Also, anyone who is age 65 and a citizen or a lawfully admitted alien with five years of residency in the United States can sign up for Medicare Part B medical insurance and pay a monthly premium. http://questions.medicare.gov/cgi-bin/me…

health insurance is needed because if you get sick for a week in hospital an american could lose their house / retirement . insurance companies know this and they exploit us by sharing our personal claims information in order to determine our risks as candidates. the charge us more and the premiums can be obscene. the government keeps our medicines priced very expensive and won't allow us to go to other countries and bring back the same medicine that is less expensive. the drug companies support the government that makes this law by contributing lots of money. many americans are going without food in order to buy the medicines that they need. many americans that have insurance , can't get the doctors or treatment that they need. they can die , while waiting to get preapproval for a life saving surgical procedure. it can take a month to get approval to begin chemotherapy. cancer can advance a lot in a month , and this could be the difference between life and death. americans recognize the need for health care insurance but fear that the states will make it mandatory as auto insurance was. the unhealthy will have to purchase higher insurance , like a SR-22 is for car insurance and still not have a good coverage. there is a article about older americans moving to mexico because they can't afford retirement in america and the health insurance/medicare. it s in msnbc today. this might be a good reference for your insurance. good luck doing the research / writing your report. i hope this gives you some ideas.

What do you pay in health insurance for your family?
Just curious, I pay about $42 a week for a family of four, it covers everything but contraceptives, at least that's all i have come across that it doesn't cover.
--------------------
For our family of four its about $720 a month. This includes dental (one free cleaning per year, and tiered coverage). No vision is offered. Instead we have a Benny card that you use for medical needs and pay no tax --- just have to keep all receipts in case they want those later. We have a $15 co-pay for everything. ER visits are not included though. We have an individual deductible of $1200 per year. And, after that they pay up to 80%. I had surgery last year and we had just switched insurance so I got a bill w/o insurance for $11,470 when I had my gallbladder out. After the insurance company did their thing we ended up paying just over $1,000 to the hospital. Of course, each individual doctor and radiologist had a bill...that was about $600. For my delivery last time (pit and cervadil and epi) it was $6,000 in total. We paid just over $600. For prenatal I pay the first co pay of $15 - then no more for the remainder of my pregnancy. My perscription prenantals are $12.15 per month. All scripts are tiered out. And, generics are given automatically unless your doc specifically writes it on your script. But...because its tiered you pay more.
