My husband and I are about to start trying for a baby so I am researching our options as far as health insurance. The health insurance we have currently does not cover maternity. We would like to pay for it on our own instead of applying for Medicaid. Thanks.
--------------------
I have Blue Cross HMO and they have been great. I actually ended up miscarrying (sorry, I usually wouldn't mention it but it is kind of necessary to the explanation) but when I went to have labor induced they put me in one of the nicest hospitals and I stayed for 3 days. They covered my entire stay including all my meals. I did not have to pay anything even though the total came to over $6000. The care I received during my pregnancy was wonderful and all I ever had to pay for was the co-pay ($10 a visit, not bad). I would for sure recommend Blue Cross.

Can you get Lasik without health/vision insurance?
I don't have health or vision insurance, but would like to get Lasik, and would be willing to pay the full amount. Do these places offer some form of insurance to cover potential problems with the operation, since I'm uninsured?
--------------------
Many Lasik providers will allow you to make payments should you choose to use their services. You will need to discuss any follow up care with them before you decide to use them. Follow up care should be included in the initial cost of the procedure. At times you may need a minor adjustment to obtain the best results. When shopping around, make a list of questions, read on line about the procedure both benefits and problems with lasik. This way you make an informed decision. Use your judgment and their responses to gage if you want to use them or not. Do not go with the first one, shop around ask people who have used their services. Your vision is way too important to take chances with. There are people who have had it done and it has changed their lives. Some have had many problems. Should you have it done, DO WHAT YOU ARE TOLD TO DO ON YOUR PART! It can make the difference between success and a huge mistake. Good luck!

Will There Be A Way to opt Out Of A Health Insurance Mandate If They Pass This Bill?
The Amish are exempt. Why can't I be as well? I want NO PART of this legislation. You people do what you want. Just leave me out.

Its a government take over... They say it isn't but it is. The government want to take us over so they may have more power and control over our choices. They think that we are stupid and we need help. To the person above me that said Repubs hate Americans for not voting for it... You are ignorant. Work harder, get a better job, and pay for your daughters bills. I do not want to pay for her "condition" and neither does anyone else. I am 21 years old and pay for my own health care. I pay just about $200 a month. I have a prosthetic leg I received 6 years ago. I bought my insurance 2 years ago. I told them I had the leg and it would require more surgeries. They said ok and were more than willing to help me. Everyone needs to shut the hell up about not getting health care and do something about it. Go buy it. Stop depending on your government to solve your problems.

In need of supplemntal health insurance?
my mom currenlty has health insurance through her job, but of course, the health insurance company does not pay for everything of which some of the things her doctors really thinks she needs. Are there any companies that offer resonable supplemental health insurance to help pay for copays, shots, medications, etc., that her current health provider wont pay for? Also, are there any that will accept pre exisiting conditions, or do you have to be perfectly healthy to be eligible. Please help............
--------------------
There are no supplemental policies to pay what you want paid. The policies available are for major procedures and hospitalization. The only way to get the copays, etc. paid is to get on Medicaid.

should the US have a nationwide health insurance program to cover all people?
i say yes, im writing a possion paper and i need websites and other sources
--------------------
The problem with nationalized health care is that the overall quality declines. It really is true that one gets what one pays for. It could mean mediocre care for mediocre illnesses, substandard care for rare illnesses unless you can afford to pay for private health care. It would be nice if all people could be insured somehow, but having us all on the same plan that is paid for by the government is not the answer.

Can US citizens obtain the European Health Insurance Card (EHIC), and if so, where?
I will be traveling to 6 different contries in September, from the US, and would like to obtain the EHIC if available.
--------------------
You are only entitled to the EHIC if you are a resident in the EU and pay taxes. If you don't live in the EU, you can't have an insurance card. Good luck.
