Let's face it: Some dental plans aren't worth the paper they're printed on, and they certainly aren't worth the money you are shelling out every month for coverage. Now, if your employer is picking up the tab, there isn't much you can do. But because employers are increasingly turning to cutbacks in benefits such as dental insurance, an increasing number of people are just getting their own. The reason that so many are joining dental networks, and getting their own dental insurance, is because it is actually a cheaper option than using the coverage provided by their employer.…

There is little relating to this reform of our health care system that is not funded by the working class. Changes in health care costs will be disguised as mandates and higher premiums to be paid by the taxpayers, despite the promises made by our nation. The plans will cost more, for less coverage. Insurance plans will change, and specific doctors may not be available due to these changes. This leads to falling quality of care for insured Americans, and exorbitant medical bills, should you need in depth care.…
The Affordable Care Act, or Obama Care, is a law signed and passed in 2010 by President Barack Obama. It was passed because it is supposed to help with the cost, accessibility, and overall quality of health care insurance like Medicaid, Medicare, CHIP, etc. However, anyone who doesn't have insurance by 2014 will have to pay a fee and are all but being told that they have to have to choose from a private insurance with higher prices. ("ObamaCare Explained: An Explanation of ObamaCare") Initially, the Affordable Care Act was meant to help with the cost of insurance.…
Obamacare has recently become a poison to the American people like a TV ad. Americans have signed up for this “healthcare program” without reading the fine print. They do not realize that Obamacare does not really give people healthcare. It actually taxes people who do not have insurance. Although Americans have signed up for Obamacare, Obamacare has actually crippled the U.S. healthcare system.…
As previously mentioned, the problem is not have an effect not only on the government but also on the people. We cannot refuse that all of the policies are created in order to help the people. If the government encounters difficulties in implementing policies, people will encounter similar troubles. For example, the government encountered obstacles in widening its policies and the people suffered from low quality medical services. In the universal health care system, everyone has the right to care.…
In a country of democracy, citizens have the rights to choose what is best for themselves. However, the governments often disregard or repulse those rights. For instance, in 2010, President Barack Obama signed an Act called ACA, which also known as the Obamacare in order to make sure all citizens have a health insurance coverage. Although at that time for some people it seemed to be a great idea, it did not balance on both sides because it did not seem to be fair for others. As Michael Hart a professor at Broward Community College once said, “ It is unconstitutional for President Barack Obama to take millions of dollars from Medicare to put on his health care and charging others who choose not to have a health insurance hundreds of dollars” (Hart).…
I. Jaime is a 27 year old college graduate who does not have health insurance. She said “Every time I get sick, if it can't be fixed with Advil, NyQuil and a good night's sleep I don't really have a solution for it. If something bad happened to me... there's no possible way I could afford it.” (Jaime’s Story) II.…
Many United States citizens do not really understand the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act also known as Obamacare that was passed in congress without any republican signatures. United States citizens need to be informed why the affordable care act is nothing but bad for the United States. Obamacare is portrayed as a cost efficient plan, but in reality the plan is really costing the citizens a lot more money than what other countries put into their health plans. The Affordable Care Act has many attributes that United States citizens do not like. Some of these attributes are that the act has an individual mandate, which makes every citizen in the United States have healthcare insurance, or you will have to pay a penalty.…
After reviewing my persuasive speech over why the University of Oklahoma is the best university in the nation, I would sum up my speech as a little bit of train wreck. Although I made good claims with factual evidence, the amount of stuttering I did, and all the times I was choked up throughout the speech drew my audience’s attention away. From this, I lost my audience’s belief that I was competent of the information I was reiterating to them. At the introduction of my speech I believe I started out fairly strong and gave a good run down of the coming speech.…
Health care affects us all whether we like it or not. Health care is a very controversial topic because many are not happy with the new “Obama care” coverage due to the fact that it requires state funding. Some tax payers do not feel they should be responsible for paying for people who need health coverage. Individuals that go long periods of time without regular check-ups are at risk for medical conditions that require serious extensive medical treatment. Personally, I believe that everyone should have affordable health care coverage.…
Kidneys are pretty important, and often an underdog in the grouping of organ systems. Without functioning kidneys, none of us can live for more than about a week, making the kidneys pretty important from a survival standpoint. Seems interesting that a person can literally be brain dead and survive–but without kidneys you can’t. Kidneys often get lumped into the “random organ” category and people often think of them like their gall bladder and appendix. Kidneys are more like lungs if you are looking for a good comparison.…

Health insurance pays for medical and surgical expenses for the people that are insured. Millions of Americans participate in the game of insurance. By investing money in insurance, they hope to stay in the game of life a little longer. Although, nothing catastrophic may happen to you, most people pay the money to feel secure and for “just in case” circumstances. Health insurance is mostly for the dying.…
