No Vaccination No Insurance - No Insurance No Hospital - PrePay Cash For ICU Or Get Lost - It's Time

It's time folks.

It's past time.

America has better things to spend money on than preventable hospital care of morons and their Darwin Experiments.

if a hospital refuses to admit you and there is a bed open, the hospital is open to a lawsuit.

And I don’t believe they will be able to pivot quickly on this. Ins cos have to file rate changes and changes to application questions with state. When they do, they will have queued up their legal teams to be prepared for lawsuits from individuals who fall into a substandard risk category or denied coverage because of COVID. Unfortunately we all pay even those of us who are responsible and get the jab. Risk will be spread across all.

offer employees. I’ve had insurance plans changed outside of open enrollment periods. If a company said give us a quote on a plan that doesn’t include unvaccinated people?

Should be interesting, I will be surprised if there isn't some rate difference for Vaccinated vs unvaccinated. They already have a tool for self reporting vaccination status, so they already have a basic idea.

I work for a large corporation, 390,000 employees, whatever we choose to do will make news. I don't want my rates increased to cover the unvaccinated people's costs.

Unbelievable seeing all this libertarian stuff coming from the supposedly left side of the aisle

National non profit healthcare is a fiscally conservative policy

I'm appalled at how short people's memories are about the devastating impact permitting insurance companies to pick and choose who to insure has.

One of the main premises of the ACA is that EVERYONE has access to insurance. Period.
