Health care reform is complex, and many Americans are not even sure why reform is necessary, or what it would do for them - but we will address the basics.
Real health insurance reform would lower costs, improve choices, and ensure that all Americans have access to meaningful, quality, and affordable insurance. Legislation has made its way through Congress that tentatively would ensure that those who are currently insured satisfied with their coverage will be able to keep their current plan.
A couple of the other provisions in health care reform discussions are limiting what insurance companies can force patients to pay out-of-pocket and tax incentives for families and small businesses to help afford quality coverage.
True health insurance reform would help curb growing health care costs, stop unfair insurance practices, and decrease the number of Americans without insurance.
