Most people love their health care plan, right up until they really need it and find they’re particular problem (1) isn’t covered (or causes them to lose their coverage), (2) is a pre-existing condition, (3) is subject to lifetime limits on what insurance will pay, (4) their doctors diagnosis and proposed treatment is rejected by some “bureaucrat” at an insurance company or (5) all of the above. Their employers are just plain unhappy, period, with health insurance companies.
That’s when the rubber meets the road, as they say. So, please call your Congressional Representatives and tell them to support the reintroduction of the public option into negotiations on health care reform:
