If I forget to mention them, will I be billed after an operation for the whole cost of an expensive surgery? Why do pre-existing conditions even matter?
In 1948, the United Nations declared health care to be a human right. Everyone should have access to it. We need to put people's health over corporate profits.
I believe the first step in accomplishing this is to pass a bill that includes a public health insurance option.
I'm not saying the government is perfect. But I also don't hear too many people complaining about government-run Medicare.
A public option existing with private insurance would allow for more choice and competition. It would also be an important step in offering quality and affordable health care to everyone.
