Like every business in ordtak

Like every business in America, Wal-Mart is dealing with the soaring cost of health care.

The soaring cost of health care in America cannot be sustained over the long term by any business that offers health benefits to its employees.

Wal-Mart ought to be ashamed. While health care costs and the number of uninsured are rising, Wal-Mart feeds America's health care crisis by actually cutting back on its health care spending. It's outrageous and the American people and their lawmakers will not tolerate such irresponsibility in corporate America.

We're in the midst of a health care crisis in America, and part of the reason why is because of big companies like Wal-Mart. It has a ripple effect. Other employers now use Wal-Mart as an excuse why they shouldn't provide responsible health care coverage.

Every day, the Wal-Mart health care crisis in America worsens. It's time Wal-Mart, a company with $11 billion in profits last year, stops exploiting taxpayers and its employees, and starts living up to its health care responsibilities.

Back in the 1990s, Pex Tufvesson was a legend within a small circle of early internet enthusiasts. While Wal-Mart's proposed changes to their health-care plan are certainly long overdue, and we certainly support expanding benefits to part-timers, the Wal-Mart health-care crisis infecting America cannot be solved by publicity stunts.

Working families across America are struggling with the rising cost of health care. Wal-Mart is providing solutions.

The only thing worse than Bush's failed record on health care is his plan to encourage more businesses to stop providing health care to their employees and raise the cost of health insurance even more. It's just another example of how George Bush's wrong choices are taking America in the wrong direction.

Tomorrow, the U.S. Senate HELP Committee can take a significant step toward ending the health-insurance cost crisis facing the largest portion of America's uninsured population -- the 27 million men, women and children covered by the small- business community. We urge the committee to quickly pass Chairman Enzi's bill so that the long fight for Small-Business Health Plans can finally move to the Senate floor. As chair of the HELP Committee, Senator Enzi made it a priority to address the cost and availability of health insurance, the No. 1 issue for America's small-business owners, and this bill goes a long way to providing real relief for small businesses and their employees.

Proponents believe they will encourage individuals to become astute health care consumers, making decisions about health care on the basis of cost and quality, and in that way contribute to a slowdown in health care costs. Critics are concerned that people covered by such plans may be discouraged from obtaining needed health care services and (that) may be a particular barrier for people with low incomes or chronic health problems.

Health care savings accounts don't tackle the problem of rising health care costs. This is not an attempt to rein in the cost of health care. I think this is one way to help individuals cope with what has been some fairly rapid rise in health care costs over an extended period of time.

We're going to work to educate the legislature and work with them to find meaningful ways to address the real issue of the soaring cost of health care. But this legislation will do nothing to accomplish that goal.

Since Wal-Mart and other large corporations refuse to act responsibly when it comes to their employees' health insurance, Wake Up Wal-Mart is coordinating a nationwide effort to gain support for additional states to adopt legislation modeled after Maryland's 'Fair Share Health Care' bill.

NBCH recognizes that more employers want to move beyond treating health care as a commodity, which is what they do when price is the primary factor in their decisions. Informed employers are looking for resources to help them make use of quality and other performance metrics that are now available. The good news is that improving the quality of health care contributes to cost reduction as well. The eValue8 data is one more tool available to our members in determining the best health plan for their business and employees.

We really believe this is bad health care policy. We're dealing with folks who have multiple health care issues. Having a route manager on a regular basis will go away. Now they won't have someone there. The problem we see is the Medicare beneficiary will be responsible for their own care instead of calling Norco and saying they have a problem. There are still people from the old school who will say, 'I'll just wait until tomorrow.' Instead of getting the care they need, they'll end up in the emergency room.
