Healthcare Reform Article

I understand why health insurance companies are lobbying hard against any real health care reform in our country. The fundamental purpose of a health insurance company is to make a profit. Is it any wonder that they deny care and coverage, rescind coverage and charge exorbitant premiums? They don't want to see any kind of reform, such as a single payer system, which would put them out of the picture.
What makes me wonder is why ordinary citizens aren't en masse asking for real reform. We don't seem to understand that we are pawns of the insurance companies in this profit-driven health care system. People worry that they won't have a choice in providers. Do we really have that choice now? How many of us have coverage that will only cover services provided by the insurance company's "preferred providers"? People worry that care will be rationed. It is is already rationed based on job status, income level and even health status. How many of us have lost a job and therefore lost the health coverage that went with that job?  When we go looking for insurance coverage, we discover that there is nothing cheap. And if you have a "pre-existing condition" most insurance companies won't cover you, even if you can afford the premiums. Under a single-payer system, everyone would be covered, regardless of income, job status, age or health status. You could go to any doctor you want without worrying about co-payments, deductibles or premiums. All health related services are covered, including doctor visits, hospital stays, prescription drugs, long-term care, dental care, and mental health care. The United States is the only advanced country in the world that does not have universal health insurance. The pay for the CEO of United Health Group in 2005 was $122.7 million. His salary that year could currently insure 34,000 people. That just makes me sick. I'd rather have my money going towards providing access to health care for everyone than tomaking huge profits for some CEO head of an insurance company.
