Written on March 6, 2010 – 1:56 am by jdcline

Many elections cycles have had Health Care and Governemnt Health Insurance as part of the platform. SO Obama is not the first to try to reform the health industry.

Infact the reformers list is long, and all with the same fault.

They think they can control somthing that is not theirs to control. Alot like many of the other programs that the shove down our throats, but this time the people are getting vocal about and and we are not going easily.

Stand up for your rights, take control of your health care expenses while you can before someone else trys do do it for you.

COBRA Subsidy Program

This is not a government site, and designed to help individuals understand the concept.

The new COBRA subsidy program is included among the components of the federal government’s economic stimulus package, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. The Act provides a 65 percent federal subsidy on COBRA continuation coverage premiums to all qualified beneficiaries receiving continuation coverage due to the covered employee’s involuntary employment termination between September 1, 2008 and December 31, 2009.

COBRA beneficiaries are eligible for the
65 percent premium for a maximum of 9 months, beginning March 1, 2009. This is not retroactive.

Check with your agent, state official site for all the info!
The Federal government is still developing details of the subsidy. The government will be sharing details about this over the next 30 days, and as they do, we will communicate them to our visitors.

If you are wondering how this law impacts your book of business, we believe that it can have a positive impact on your sales growth. For some the new American Recovery and Reinvestment Act will be beneficial, for others, Blue Shield may have more affordable options.

Outline of American health care system  verses Norway Health System

Americans have taken Health Care for granted for years. With a strong economy , and businesses providing healthcare benefits the majority of America grew to expect benefits, and as companies grew and quality employees were in demand companies enriched their benefits to attract employees.

Now we are seeing the other side of that, where Americans are not covered by health care, benefits are being cut to save corporations from financial disaster and America is becoming MORE and MORE UN-Insured.

Many people are looking toward Norway Health system and other like it.

Written on January 7, 2009 – 6:54 pm by jdcline

What will the new president elect do about his promiss on FREE HEALTH INSURANCE FOR EVERY AMERICAN ? Well it looks as if that was a bit of a campaign ploy, as of today no FREE FOR ALL plan exist.

There are several FREE and LOW COST options availible for individuals, families and especially children that we provide links, facts and information on. Most of these plans will be State Government plans and many come with conditions or income requirements.

Other than FREE INSURANCE there are also many supplemented plans, where the government will pay a portion to subsidise the cost to the consumer, and the consumer will pay a reduced cost for covergae provided by traditional health insurance carrier.

Carrier Direct plans are alos availble, and with the econome today and the impending threat of Gorernment intervention the carriers are doing all they can to ensure the millions of un-insured are getting covergae, but most do not know about all the new plans availible just in 2009.
