4. Y'know, I hear a lot of people dissatisfied with their HMOs. Why? |
|
I'm honestly interested. I've had nothing but good experiences with mine (even threatened one of them into covering a procedure thay had no legal responsibility to cover).
Disclaimer: I'm a federal employee, so I have a FEHBP HMO (Aetna).

3. Sounds like another baroque scheme |
|
All of these attempts to patchwork together tax breaks, pecial breaks for the really poor, "Negotiatinbg" better deals with private insurers, etc. are, in my opinion, just ways to avoid the real issue.
Healthcare should be a basic right, and there should -- at the very least -- be a universally available program for affordable public coverage based on income.
Can argue about whether there should also continue to be private insurance as an option too, but step one is to put something in place that is a clearcut public program available to all, which all can afford.
