These insurances would not be beneficial for individuals that have a long history of health problems. Furthermore, they discuss how this will affect people working for big companies. It actually would not have much effect on the individual, it would just make it easy for the employer to give you quota if you want to purchase your own insurance. Lastly, it was said that soon we…
President Obama’s Hypocrisy President Barack Hussein Obama is the forty fourth president of the United States elected in 2008 and he is the first president, under the constitution, of African descent. He worked his way up from the Illinois State Senate to the US Senate and was officially sworn in as president on January 20, 2009. Given his background in politics, logically, people assumed that he was a responsible, trustworthy candidate for president; however, his actions prove otherwise. His past work does not stand for his mental ability to run and decide for a country. Instead of his idea of “hope” and “change”, his presidency has brought the United States to the brink of ruin.…
Health Law’s Eight New Changes HC1: In September of 2010, under the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, the government made eight new changes to its health laws (Carey, 2010). These changes have affected Americans in different ways, depending on the insurance coverage that each individual has (Carey, 2010). The ACA included changes such as raising the age requirement for children on their parent’s insurance plan to twenty-six, prohibiting insurers from denying children coverage due to a pre-existing medical condition,, and prohibiting insurers from canceling an individual’s coverage due to sickness (Carey, 2010). Insurers also cannot charge co-pays for preventative services such as cancer screenings and the individuals get the right to choose their primary physicians and specialists, not the insurer (Carey, 2010).…
Retrieved March 16, 2017 from http://paulryan.house.gov/healthcare/ This is Paul Ryan’s website that gives a detailed explanation of what the health care plan he is devising consists of.

Since March of 2010, the American people have had to suffer under the incredible economic burden of the Affordable Care Act—Obamacare. This legislation, passed by totally partisan votes in the House and Senate and signed into law by the most divisive and partisan President in American history, has tragically but predictably resulted in runaway costs, websites that don’t work, greater rationing of care, higher premiums, less competition and fewer choices. Obamacare has raised the economic uncertainty of every single person residing in this country. As it appears Obamacare is certain to collapse of its own weight, the damage done by the Democrats and President Obama, and abetted by the Supreme Court, will be difficult to repair unless the next…
Since the day President Obama was inaugurated into presidency, he has attempted many times to reform the United States healthcare system. His first endeavor was known as the Affordable Health Care for America Act, and when that was not passed he tried the Patient Protection Act. Finally, on March 23, 2010, President Obama signed an act into law ("ObamaCare" 1) that would change the future for doctors and Americans forever. It is called the Affordable Care Act (ACA), also known as the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, or ObamaCare. On that same day it was passed, Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli challenged its constitutionality and filed a lawsuit against it with the support of thirteen other states (Tennant 1).…
Sure Obamacare says you will have to have to choose a healthcare plan or pay a waiver fee. I think this is just fine because we have to provide car insurance in order to drive. No one is complaining about having to pay for car insurance in order to drive because it makes drivers and insurance companies responsible for your actions. The same theory applies to the new healthcare reform act. Sure Obamacare has some downsides and some upsides depending where you stand financially.…
The law also requires insurance companies to cover all applicants within new minimum standards and offer the same rates regardless of pre-existing conditions or sex. Before people can get rejected for insurance plans if they have a pre-existing condition and it can even be a small issue and they would use it to deny you, I say who doesn’t have something going on with them. The new health reform law provides security to the hardworking citizens of the United States “.Millions of people are finally in a position to enjoy the financial security that health insurance brings,” the president sad.…
To have equal Insurance companies’ lowered playing field. Insurance companies are limited how they spend premium dollars, and forced to give back to consumers through rebates. It will also be illegal to turn kids down because of their pre-existing health problems. The plan is for…
President Obama is very good at framing his words so that the American public can understand him the way he wants them to. Obama made a very eloquent transition into talking about the benefits of his health care system by comparing what he was doing with what some of our finest presidents have done in the past. When Obama was quoting Teddy Roosevelt and how he broke up monopolies, or establishing our national park systems, or when he is talking about Dwight Eisenhower and how the government under his watch started the interstate highway system, he noted that during all of these big changes there was also resistance from the public but if we look back on the matter now we couldn’t live without some of these systems that were put in place. Obama has framed his words so that the American people can justify supporting him in the decisions he as made during his presidency. Obama is also able to throw any type of blame off on his government and put it back on the American…
The affordable Health Care Act was passed and signed into law on March 23, 2010. The act was introduced by President Barack Obama administration to improve access to affordable health coverage for individuals and protect against abusive practices by insurance companies. The Affordable Health Care Act provides stronger consumer rights and protection, more affordable healthcare coverage, better access to care, and stronger Medicare. The Act also, prevents insurance companies from denying children and adults with preexisting health conditions, putting limits on healthcare cost, and cancelling health insurance coverage due to honest mistakes made by insurance applicants. The Republican Party has adopted the name “Obama Care” to denote a negative condescension towards the Act because of their opposition to the Obama administration.…
And they are allowed to receive an “easy-to-understand” summary about a health plan’s benefits and coverage before purchasing any plan from the insurance companies. This prevents companies from “tricking” customers into purchasing plans that are not needed or cover over the amount necessary. Another way to keep insurers honest is the new 80/20 rule, which essentially forces the insurers to be candor. The rate review provisions purpose is to keep the rates down. An addition that could potentially save money, is that young adults are allowed to stay on their parent’s plan until the age of 26.…
For 86% of Americans, health care as they know it will not be changed. The Affordable Care Act, arguably President Obama’s largest achievement in office, has faced much backfire, both with lack of support, as well as raised issues of Constitutionality. This being said, Obamacare has been implemented and now has goals to be fully functional by the year 2016. Many Americans did not know how this change in national health care effects them, which is why many people are against it, simply because they don’t like change, and they don’t like not knowing what to expect. With Obamacare though, the majority, 86% of Americans, will not see extensive changes in their health care, if they even see any changes at all.…
