The problem of Americans ordtak
 The problem of Americans lacking health insurance is worsening. Two years ago, there were 43 million uninsured. Now there are 46 million. |
| And we have 45 million uninsured Americans. We have seven million Californians without health insurance coverage. |
| More than nine years into our longest economic expansion on record, more employers are now using health insurance coverage to attract and keep workers, and are absorbing rising costs rather than passing them on to their employees. But this may change if the economy cools down, and the bigger challenge that still remains is how to help the 44 million Americans who are uninsured despite the robust economy. |
| People are hurting, 3 million people lost their jobs, 43 million Americans have no health insurance. |
Bill Bradley (1943-) |  |
| The large and increasing number of uninsured Americans is no longer simply an altruistic concern on behalf of those without health coverage, but a matter of self-interest for everyone, ... The stakes are high both for businesses and for workers who do have health insurance because they bear the brunt of costs for the uninsured. |
| Recent mergers have given the industry a strangle hold over the health insurance market. With fewer pressures for efficiency and no government oversight of rates, insurers have been given free rein to spend more of our health care dollars on overhead, profit, and administration. The last decade of HMO mergers has taught us that when fewer HMOs dominate the health care market, quality goes down, premiums go up, and patients get short changed. Already, 45 million Americans are uninsured because they cannot afford to pay the insurers' ransom. |
| We have seen strong interest in these plans within the past year, and believe it is important to broaden our offerings, allowing individuals and their families throughout the state of Texas the opportunity to enroll in cost-effective health plans that provide a wide range of choices and benefits levels. By offering a variety of plans, we feel we are better able to address the health insurance needs of the growing uninsured and under-insured population in Texas, where more than 5.4 million people - or 25 percent of the population - are uninsured. |
| Cost of repair was approximately $300 million, with the $250 million self-insured retention, which is like an insurance deduction. The $25 million was our insurance deductible. |
| More than 5.4 million of the self-employed have absolutely no health insurance coverage, nor do 1.5 million of their children. In the end, we all pay for that, |
| Unfairly targeting individual companies is simply not the answer, especially when it's a company like ours that provides health insurance to over one million Americans. |
| Nobody's safe. Health insurance? That didn't protect 1 million Americans who were financially ruined by illness or medical bills last year. |
| It's certainly possible that illegal (or legal) aliens are taking some Americans' jobs, but I am not sure those who are proposing these laws have a real handle on the magnitude of that as a problem. Frankly, I am not sure it is a significant problem. What we are aware of is that there are at least 12 million aliens working in this country and we know that today there aren't 12 million unemployed Americans waiting to replace them in those jobs if they leave the U.S. work force. |
| We had $1 million in natural gas costs in 2005. This year this cost will be between $1.3 million and $1.4 million. Our health care costs in 2000 were $3.3 million; today, they are $5.8 million. |
