Take Action for Health Care NOW
he U.S. Senate will soon vote on a national health care reform bill.
Senator Joe Lieberman needs to hear from Connecticut residents NOW. He does not support inclusion of a strong public health insurance option in the Senate's health care reform bill.
A public health insurance option is a cornerstone of strong health care reform.
Strong national health care reform will boost bold state reform - such as Connecticut's SustiNet, which will provide a quality, affordable public health insurance choice.
Tell Senator Lieberman that we need his support for national health care reform that includes a strong public health insurance option.
Help make sure everyone has health care they can count on.
Please call Senator Lieberman today - toll free at: 1-877-264-4226.
Thank you!

From Health Care for America NOW!
It's a crime that insurance companies rack up profits by denying patients treatment even when doctors recommend it, by discriminating against people with pre-existing conditions, and by keeping premiums and out of pocket costs high so that care is unaffordable even for those who have insurance. Enough is enough!

Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus, wants to include a version of a government option called a co-op owned by insured members. What a wonderful idea says Mike Oliphant whom manages Utah health insurance plans for www.benefitsmanager.net/utah-group-health-insurance.htm . This may encourage competition from private health insurance carriers. But I fear it will fail ultimately if there is no TORT reform because the same liability costs that plague medical professionals and health insurance carriers will be like a fast cancer growth within the co-op plan. A government option wouldn’t allow legal suite against the plan but will with medical providers. Doesn’t anyone see that we need TORT reform to protect the cost outcome? See what Utah has done with health care reform www.ahealthinsurancequote.com/reform.html.
Hello. I agree that there is a great need for a new health insurance system in the US. More than 15% of the American population is still without any insurance coverage! The problem is there are a few huge insurance companies which don't allow small companies to enter market. There shouldn't be monopoly concerning the health care!
Wishing all the best,
Lorne
