The
siren is howling
and the ambulance
is shifting back
and forth weaving
through the Monday
morning rush hour
traffic. The emergency
medical technicians
are checking your
vital signs and
using that “doctor speak” that
you hear on television.
The
pain in your chest
is almost unbearable,
yet even through
the hazy fog of
pain your mind
keeps shifting
back to one nagging
thought, “Why
didn’t I
buy that health
plan? What is Amy
going to do? Even
if I make it, there’s
no way we can afford
this!”
Unfortunately,
this is a scene
that is played
out around the
country every single
day. Here is one
more husband and
father coming face
to face with reality.
Instead of, “it
will never happen
to me,” it
has become, “why
did this happen
to me?”
Will
our husband and
father survive?
If he does, what
are the chances
that he and his
family will resume
a normal lifestyle?
Statistically,
our fellow has
a 40% chance of
survival depending
on how long he’s
been abusing his
body. Sadly, with
no health insurance
coverage and no
available cash,
the medical bills
will likely force
him into bankruptcy.
All
one needs to do
is turn on the
TV or tune in a
talk radio program
and the subject
of health insurance
will pop up sooner
rather than later.
Following
up terrorism and
the economy, the
skyrocketing cost
of health insurance
is polarizing our
country. Our health
care system is
in major need of
revamping but unfortunately
our leaders have
made it just one
more political
issue.
In
the meantime, the
average American
continues to grapple
with the rising
costs or, take
a gamble like our
friend and hope
they beat the odds.
What
can one person
do?
The
first thing you
need to do is realize
that you MUST have
health coverage
of some kind, even
if only to cover
the catastrophic
expenses like our
friend.
The
second thing you
can do is to get
informed! It’s
very difficult
to fight a war
when you know nothing
about the enemy.
Yes, most insurance
plans are so unwieldy
and garbled that
they make it almost
impossible to understand.
That’s
where Your Guide
To Good Health
Insurance comes
in. This guide
is not just another “directory” health
insurance providers
who are advertising
their products.
Written
in plain English!
That’s
correct! We have
prepared Your
Guide To Good
Health Insurance
so that anyone
can understand
the terminology
without requiring
a law degree.
