| *Loan,banking and credit>>>health insurance |
OK,What are some problems California faces that is making it difficult to pass health insurance? |
For example,I personally think immigration is a big one...what are other though? Thanks I will take a stab at what I interpret to be your question - Why is the Governor having a hard time with his mandated health insurance proposal? One reason I know of, I am sure there are more - The Governor intends to help fund this by taxing the physicians who provide the medical services. These physicians are already providing services at a barely break even reimbursement rate. If they have to pay an additional tax, they will essentially be paying to see these patients. I think Arnold should use caution here lest he drive the doctors out of his state. *edit* I need to clarify my reference to doctors receiving low reimbursement rates lest some think I am referring to MediCal rates and treating illegal immigrants. I was referring to managed care commercial insurers in the state of California who pay so poorly that doctors barely break even. They collect hefty premiums, pay the doctors a pittance and make a great profit. There are probably a few folks that believe that the government shouldn't be in the healthcare business. I totally agree that when illegal aliens can qualify for more health benefits than the citizens, something is definitely wrong, and we wonder why California is in such a financial mess. I think another reason is the fact that the big corporations are making a killing on us. We borrow fuel and electricity that we don't need find out later that we didn't need it, and so many big companies have been caught ripping off the public because they are making large campaign contributions, and the politicians are looking the other way. California has lost so much by unethical politics, and it's sad, because I love this state. California Dreamer I've been in California my whole life...all 53 years of it! We have a HUGE affordable housing crisis. If the housing situation could be dealt with by building low cost rentals for low income families, then our state could concentrate on other issues. Right now, we need to get people off the streets & back into a reasonable lifestyle that is better than that of a stray animal that is thrown into a shelter, fed slop, & hosed off! We need to start treating people in a more humane fashion, no matter what their immigration status is. A human who is in need should receive enough help to assist them in attaining their own independence. A training/work/educational program should be put into action to assist ALL of our citizens. Once a person gets back on their feet (5 years?), they should be required to give back by volunteering at least ONE DAY every 3 months, or 4 times a year & we could ALL help each other by sharing our knowledge & giving of our time back to the state that has helped us to get back on our feet! Money and desire. The politicians always promise but never delive, and until they are forced to they wont deliver. But if they wanted to they cant, CA is under a lot of fiscal pressure. LOL!!!! I think it would have easier to ask what is NOT a problem in California right now. Then just use process of elimination from that point, taking care of the major problems first. |
