Re: AAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [OT]

I hate to say it I as an employer I am running into problems with health
insurance. I may have to either cancel our insurance coverage or have our
employees fully cover it themselves instead of doing partial pay. This year
insurance cost has tripled for group coverage. I have checked into other
companies they are almost double my current cost. I also have checked with
the insurance companies I may go down to individual coverage and do partial
pay that it would be extremely cost effective but the companies may not
cover everyone. I do my best for my employees and want to do my best but
you can only go so far. Even COBRA has gotten really ridiculous

The senate is considering a bill that would allow insurance companies to
disallow coverage of mammograms and routine exams for children.
Employers
could choose to go with the cheaper plan with less coverage.

How much more is this administration going to deliberately hurt the lower
and middle classes of this country???!!!!!

They also want to include a mandory routine AIDS test with physicals. I
think that's unfair practice because then future insurance companies can
deny a person coverage.

Speaking as an uninsured, unemployed person who is going in for a
mammogram
on Thursday, I can tell you how difficult it was to find a clinic who will
even see me. They're taking me on a sliding scale based upon how much
money
my husband makes. After the mammogram, though, I have no idea how I'm
going
to financially face treatment. I may not do anything and just let nature
take its course.

If I was a single, unemployed person with children, I would be eligible
for
Medicaid, but as a married woman under 40, I am not.

I am so disgruntled with the way the government is being run and I don't
see
it changing for the better.
