It is unforunate that the discussion (if it can be called that) has been so hysterical. The ACA is not perfect by any means, but it is a step toward providing some level basic coverage for all Americans. It is far less of a government run progam than the VA, Medicare and Medicaid as the insurance is to be provided by private health insurance companies within government set parameters for benefit coverage. It offers a choice of plans and insurers, removes lifetime maximums, and eliminates barriers to coverage such as pre-existing conditions. The primary concern should be focused on how well it will contain increases in the cost of health care. This hopefully is something that can be fixed over time if we can get beyond the hysterics. <br />Mainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00401249701516930375noreply@blogger.com
