Σχέδιο McCain - τα εκατομμύρια θα χάσουν την ασφαλιστική κάλυψη

Σάββατο, 24η Μαΐου 2008

plan.jpgΑπό την ΕΕ Hartley | Αμερικανοί πρέπει να γνωρίζουν αυτού που το σχέδιο υγειονομικής περίθαλψης γερουσιαστή John McCain's συνεπάγεται. Κάτω από την ενδυμασία της πάλης του πληθωρισμού υγειονομικής περίθαλψης, στοχεύει στο παρεχόμενο σύστημα που καλύπτει αυτήν την περίοδο πάνω από 60 τοις εκατό του μη-ηλικιωμένου πληθυσμού. Αυτό θα ανάγκαζε αποτελεσματικά τους ανθρώπους που έχουν τώρα την ασφάλεια υγείας μέσω των εργοδοτών τους για να αγοράσουν τα μεμονωμένα σχέδια υγειονομικής περίθαλψης μέσω των ανεξέλεγκτων ασφαλιστικών εταιρειών. Αντί της μείωσης των δαπανών υγειονομικής περίθαλψης, αυτό θα τον αύξανε.

Στην προσπάθεια να δημιουργηθούν δικοί του υγειονομική περίθαλψη η πολιτική, McCain εμφανίζεται να γυρίζει στους οικονομικούς υποστηρικτές του βιομηχανία υγειονομικής περίθαλψης για τις συμβουλές και την κατεύθυνση. Τι έχουν έρθει επάνω με είναι ένα εξαιρετικά ιδεολογικό σχέδιο βασισμένο στην προϋπόθεση ότι το πρόβλημα στη βιομηχανία υγειονομικής περίθαλψής μας είναι ότι έχουμε πάρα πολλή ασφάλεια. Οι σκέψεις τους είναι ότι εάν πρέπει να αγοράσουμε την υγειονομική περίθαλψή μας με τα χρήματα άμεσα από τις τσέπες μας αντί κατευθείαν εργοδότες θα αναγκάσουμε τους παθολόγους, νοσοκομεία, και ασφαλιστικές εταιρείες για να γίνει αποδοτικότερος.

Αυτή είναι η θεωρία τους. Εδώ είναι τα γεγονότα.

Οι περισσότεροι Αμερικανοί πληρώνουν ήδη τουλάχιστον ένα μέρος των ασφαλίστρων τους από τις τσέπες τους. Υπάρχουν επίσης οι συνεχώς αυξανόμενες ομο-πληρωμές στις οποίες τρέχουμε όλο και περισσότερο. Αυτό είναι ήδη με συνέπεια τους ανθρώπους που έχουν τι θεωρείται «καλή ασφάλεια» για να ζυγίσει προσεκτικά κάθε επίσκεψη γιατρών. Το τελικό αποτέλεσμα είναι ότι ακόμη και τώρα τα εκατομμύρια Αμερικανών δεν παίρνουν την υγειονομική περίθαλψη που χρειάζονται. Αυτό οδηγεί δαπάνες υγειονομικής περίθαλψης επάνω, όχι κάτω.

Το McCain έχει επίσης ένα σχέδιο ασφάλιστρα υγειονομικής περίθαλψης των φορολογικών εργαζομένων» που είναι εργοδότης παρεχόμενος. Η συναίνεση και μεταξύ των συντηρητικών και των φιλελευθέρων είναι ότι αυτό θα οδηγήσει πιθανώς στους εργοδότες που τελειώνουν τα οφέλη υγειονομικής περίθαλψης που επιτρέπουν τους υπαλλήλους τους.

Εδώ είναι kicker. Το McCain δεν υποστηρίζει αυτά τα γεγονότα. Η τεράστια δοκιμασία που θα οδηγούσε λόγω του σχεδίου υγείας του (εκατομμύρια των οικογενειών που χάνουν την ασφαλιστική κάλυψή τους και που πρέπει να βρεί την εναλλακτική κάλυψη) δεν είναι μια απρομελέτητη συνέπεια. Θα προτιμούσε ότι Αμερικανοί αγοράζουν την ασφάλεια ως άτομα.

McCain would also like to do away with regulations that require companies to insure patients with pre-existing conditions, require benefits to be provided that do not exclude certain medical conditions, and prevent companies from charging exorbitant premiums for substandard benefits. He would give you the “freedom” to buy your insurance through private companies that may be in other states with differing regulations. Obviously many of the big insurance companies are doing their homework right now to determine which states would be the most advantageous to place their corporate headquarters if McCain wins the presidency.

Part of McCain’s plan is a refundable tax credit to help pay for health insurance ($2,500 for individuals and $5,000 for families). Last year the average annual expense for the most common type of insurance plan was $11,765. This means that the average family would pay roughly $6,765 after subtracting the $5,000 tax credit –- approximately double what the average employee pays for their share of their current premiums.

To reiterate, McCain’s goal is for Americans to pay more for their health care because he believes this will lead them to think harder before seeking medical care.

McCain and his supporters in the insurance industry would also create something they are calling a Health Savings Account. This is a savings account attached to an insurance plan with very high deductibles making it essentially a catastrophic health plan. For normal doctor visits, you would deduct money from your savings account until it’s empty. After there is nothing left are you wondering how you will pay for your health care? Good question!

This combination is known as “consumer-directed health care.” Although it is promoted as a way to save money, the impact on our economy and society will not be positive. This will leave millions of people with substandard medical coverage, more health problems, and higher incidences of health cost-related financial problems.

It would also place the insurance industry and the drug industry in ever more control of America’s health care system.

The release of McCain’s health care plan is a test for our country’s mainstream media. Health care experts who are grounded in reality will have to tell reporters that there is nothing to support McCain’s claims that his plan will reduce health care costs. Will the media get to the bottom of the story?

The bottom line is this: McCain’s health plan is set to greatly increase the number of uninsured Americans and it will likely do nothing about high health care costs. The number of Americas who cannot afford good health insurance for their families is going to increase. Will the mainstream media get this story right?

    I take it you have not had a health savings account before. I’ve had one for the last few years, and I’ve never felt so empowered when it comes to what medical providers I choose, what procedures they perform, and how much I’m willing to pay. When you combine an HSA with a high-deductible insurance plan, you pay your medical costs (or a large portion of them) up until the deductible, but once you reach that deductible all of your costs (or most of them, depending on what plan you elect to have) are paid for by the insurance provider.

    The main benefit of HSAs is that they make consumers price-sensitive to health care costs, which means doctors, hospitals, eyeglass-providers, etc. can’t keep jacking up prices without losing some of their business. Eventually that will mean lower prices for everyone. Contrast that to traditional insurance plans, Medicaid, etc., where it doesn’t really matter to individuals how much procedures cost because they’re not directly paying for them.

    And perhaps the greatest thing is that the money is yours to keep, which gives you an incentive to live a healthy lifestyle with a focus on prevention.
