Lack of health insurance an epidemic – what should be done?
Nearly 16 percent of Americans – 47 million people – are uninsured. According to a story in USAToday, the people without health insurance aren't just the poor – they are all of us. Medical bills are the cause of more than half of all personal bankruptcies in the United States.
Urge Congress to act now – a call to action
Access to private medical insurance that is safe and affordable is easily the biggest domestic crisis facing us. Our advocacy page urges you to join us in urging Congress to support President Obama's call for health care reform. His plans are to ensure health plans do not discriminate on the basis of pre-existing conditions, expand access to the government's own insurance program, lower the cost on existing plans and give you the ability to keep your coverage if you switch jobs or become self-employed. Contact a member of the House of Representatives. Contact a US Senator. Contact the White House
Healthinsurance.org has long-held a well-deserved reputation for promoting health insurance reform, and with President Obama's election we are stepping up our efforts.
State Guides to health plans and health care quality
You'll also find information on the quality of health care in individual states from across the nation, spanning New Jersey to California. Each page also gives you the opportunity to receive quotes on protecting your family, getting pricing and details from competing companies. Many states are seeking ways to tackle the problem of access to affordable health insurance on their own, and we look to health care reform initiatives on our state pages. We also have links to the contact forms for your elected officials, so you can easily lend your support, or offer alternative ideas.
